Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows Server as the network virtual appliance (NVA) and provides only Windows-based instructions and PowerShell commands for BGP configuration. There are no Linux alternatives, examples, or mentions of Linux tools (such as FRRouting, Quagga, or Bird), nor are any Linux-based configuration steps provided. The tutorial assumes a Windows environment throughout, demonstrating a strong Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions for deploying and configuring a Linux-based NVA (e.g., Ubuntu VM) using common open-source BGP tools like FRRouting or Quagga.
- Provide Linux shell commands and configuration file examples for BGP setup and peering.
- Include screenshots and portal steps for selecting a Linux image during VM creation.
- Mention production-ready Linux appliances available in the Azure Marketplace.
- Ensure that verification steps (e.g., route checks) include both PowerShell and Linux CLI equivalents (such as using 'vtysh', 'birdc', or 'ip route').
