Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Windows-based command examples (PowerShell, tracert from Windows shell), and omitting equivalent Linux commands (e.g., Bash, iproute2, traceroute, Azure CLI). All Azure management and route validation steps use PowerShell, with no mention of cross-platform alternatives. The failover testing section uses Windows tracert and PowerShell exclusively, with no Linux or macOS guidance.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all Azure resource management tasks, as Azure CLI is cross-platform.
  • Provide Linux equivalents for network validation commands, such as using 'traceroute' instead of 'tracert', and show how to run these from a Linux VM or shell.
  • Add guidance for macOS users where relevant, especially for connectivity and troubleshooting steps.
  • Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux can be used for on-premises test servers and provide sample commands for each.
  • Where possible, use generic commands (e.g., REST API, Azure Portal) or note platform-specific differences to ensure parity.
