Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing RDP and Windows VM connectivity first and most frequently, mentioning Kerberos authentication specifically for Windows VMs, and providing links and examples that prioritize Windows scenarios. Linux connectivity is referenced only once, with no detailed Linux-specific examples or parity in authentication and management guidance. There is a lack of Linux tooling or command-line examples, and Windows-centric features (Kerberos, RDP) are highlighted without equivalent coverage for Linux (e.g., SSH key management, Linux authentication methods).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux SSH connectivity examples and workflows, including command-line usage and integration with Azure Bastion.
  • Provide parity in authentication guidance for Linux VMs, such as integrating with PAM, LDAP, or other Linux authentication mechanisms.
  • Include Linux-specific security recommendations (e.g., SSH hardening, Linux firewall configuration) alongside Windows-centric advice.
  • Reference Linux tools and management patterns (e.g., using Azure CLI, Bash scripts) equally with Windows tools like PowerShell.
  • Ensure all features (e.g., session recording, privileged access) are described for both Windows and Linux scenarios, with clear examples for each.
