Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-specific tools (AD FS Management snap-in, Server Manager, Event Viewer), providing PowerShell-only examples for configuration, and omitting any mention of Linux alternatives or cross-platform approaches for AD FS management or troubleshooting. All procedural steps assume a Windows environment and do not address scenarios for administrators using Linux or non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
- Add notes or sections clarifying that AD FS is a Windows-only technology, but acknowledge cross-platform SAML providers and how they might integrate with Azure AD B2C.
- Where possible, provide equivalent steps or references for managing SAML identity providers from Linux (e.g., using open-source SAML IdPs like Shibboleth or SimpleSAMLphp) and how to configure them with Azure AD B2C custom policies.
- For certificate creation and management, include Linux/openssl command-line examples alongside Windows instructions.
- When discussing troubleshooting, mention how to access logs or debug SAML transactions from non-Windows environments, such as using syslog or application logs in Linux-based SAML providers.
- Clearly indicate in prerequisites that the guide is specific to AD FS (Windows), and link to documentation for integrating other SAML providers on different platforms.
