Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples for ExpressRoute verification, configuration, and troubleshooting use Azure PowerShell cmdlets, with no mention of Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux-native tools. The only traffic test tool referenced is PsPing, a Windows-only utility. There are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives provided, and Windows-centric tools and patterns are presented exclusively and before any Linux options (which are absent).
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all command-line tasks, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Include Linux-native tools for network testing, such as 'ping', 'traceroute', 'nc', or 'iperf', and show how to use them for ExpressRoute troubleshooting.
  • Reference cross-platform alternatives to PsPing, such as 'hping3', 'iperf', or 'nmap', and provide example usage.
  • Explicitly state that the troubleshooting steps can be performed from Linux and macOS environments, not just Windows.
  • Where screenshots or instructions reference Windows-only tools, add equivalent steps for Linux (e.g., using Bash, terminal commands, or Linux desktop environments).
  • Review and update any portal instructions to clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS/browser.
