Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the authorization step, where only PowerShell cmdlets (Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration, Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy) are referenced for tenant and user policy configuration. These are Windows-centric tools, with no mention of Linux-compatible alternatives or cross-platform approaches (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API). The initial configuration steps assume access to Microsoft Teams PowerShell and Skype for Business PowerShell modules, which are not natively available on Linux. The rest of the guide is programming-language agnostic and does not show OS bias, but the critical setup phase is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-compatible alternatives for tenant and user policy configuration, such as Azure CLI commands or REST API equivalents if available.
  • Explicitly mention whether the PowerShell cmdlets can be run in Azure Cloud Shell (which is cross-platform) or provide instructions for using remote management from non-Windows environments.
  • Add a note or section for Linux/macOS users on how to perform the authorization steps, including any prerequisites or limitations.
  • Where possible, link to documentation for cross-platform tools and clarify OS requirements for administrative tasks.
  • Consider reordering or parallelizing instructions so that Windows and Linux approaches are presented side-by-side, rather than Windows-first.
