Summary
The documentation page describes connecting to a Linux VM using RDP via Azure Bastion, but it demonstrates bias by focusing on RDP—a protocol and workflow historically associated with Windows. The page requires installation of xrdp (a Linux implementation of RDP) but does not mention or provide examples for native Linux remote access tools (such as SSH or VNC), nor does it provide Linux-specific client usage instructions. There are no examples of connecting from a Linux client, and the documentation does not address Linux-centric remote management patterns.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for connecting to Linux VMs using SSH via Azure Bastion, which is the native and most common method for Linux remote management.
- Provide instructions for connecting from Linux client machines, including use of RDP clients available on Linux (e.g., Remmina, rdesktop, FreeRDP) and SSH clients.
- Mention and compare alternative remote desktop solutions for Linux (such as VNC, X2Go), and clarify when RDP/xrdp is preferable.
- Ensure parity in documentation by presenting Linux-native patterns and tools before or alongside Windows-centric ones.
- Add troubleshooting steps and configuration examples specific to Linux environments, including firewall and authentication considerations.
