Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a clear Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server as the VM image, guiding users to connect via RDP (a Windows protocol), and omitting any instructions or examples for Linux-based VMs or SSH connections. The workflow assumes the use of Windows tools (RDP, Microsoft Edge) and does not mention Linux alternatives or provide parity for Linux administrators.
Recommendations
- Include instructions for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) alongside the Windows VM example.
- Provide steps for connecting to a Linux VM using SSH, including port selection and security recommendations.
- Mention Linux-compatible tools for viewing and downloading flow logs, such as azcopy, Azure CLI, or mounting Blob storage via fuse.
- Show how to open and analyze flow logs on Linux (e.g., using cat, jq, or other text editors).
- Balance screenshots and examples to reflect both Windows and Linux environments.
- Explicitly note differences in network security group rules (e.g., SSH port 22 for Linux, RDP port 3389 for Windows).
