Summary
The documentation page shows evidence of Windows bias, particularly in the 'Hybrid Connections' section, which exclusively mentions installing the Hybrid Connection Manager on 'Windows Server 2012 or newer' hosts, with no mention of Linux support or alternatives. There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity notes for cross-platform scenarios. Additionally, the gateway-required virtual network integration feature is explicitly limited to 'App Service Windows plans', with no Linux equivalent or workaround described. The documentation generally presents Windows options and tools first, and omits Linux-specific guidance where relevant.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support for features like Hybrid Connections, including whether Linux is supported and, if so, provide installation and usage instructions for Linux hosts.
- Where features are Windows-only (e.g., gateway-required VNet integration), clarify the lack of Linux support and suggest alternative approaches for Linux users.
- Add Linux-specific examples and instructions for networking features throughout the documentation to ensure parity.
- Review all tool and agent references (such as Hybrid Connection Manager) and provide cross-platform alternatives or note limitations.
- Consider a cross-platform compatibility matrix for networking features to help users quickly identify platform-specific limitations.
