Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias in the DNS forwarding configuration section. Only Windows Server and PowerShell examples are provided for setting up conditional forwarders, with no mention of Linux-based DNS servers (such as BIND or dnsmasq) or their configuration steps. Windows terminology and tools (PowerShell, DNS console) are used exclusively, and Windows is presented as the default/primary platform for on-premises DNS management.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent configuration instructions for popular Linux DNS servers (e.g., BIND, dnsmasq, Unbound), including sample configuration file snippets for conditional forwarding.
  • Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., editing named.conf, using dig/nslookup from Linux shells) alongside Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Explicitly mention that the procedure applies to both Windows and Linux DNS servers, and provide links to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Reorder or parallelize examples so that Windows and Linux instructions are presented together, rather than Windows first.
  • Clarify any platform-specific limitations or considerations for Azure DNS Private Resolver integration.
