Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps and examples frequently reference Windows-specific tools and workflows, such as Internet Explorer for proxy autodetection and Windows file paths. Linux equivalents are mentioned, but often after Windows instructions or with less detail. There are no command-line examples for Linux (e.g., using iptables, systemd-resolved, or Linux CLI tools), and screenshots or UI instructions are tailored to the Azure Portal, which is platform-agnostic but the proxy troubleshooting leans Windows-first. The NSG configuration examples do not show how to validate connectivity from a Linux VM, nor do they provide Linux-specific troubleshooting commands.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and command-line examples (e.g., using curl, dig, or iptables) for network connectivity issues.
  • Include Linux screenshots or terminal output where appropriate, especially for DNS and proxy configuration validation.
  • When referencing proxy autodetection, explain how it works on both Windows (Internet Explorer) and Linux (/etc/environment), and provide parity in detail.
  • Add examples of how to check outbound connectivity from Linux VMs (e.g., using curl or wget to test access to required URLs/IPs).
  • Ensure that file path references and configuration instructions are given for both Windows and Linux, with equal prominence.
  • Avoid mentioning Windows tools or patterns first; present Linux and Windows instructions side-by-side or in parallel sections.
