Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows/Active Directory DNS is presented as the default and best practice, with Microsoft links and terminology used throughout. Examples and screenshots for DNS management and record viewing are Windows-centric, and Windows tools (DNS Manager, nslookup) are described in detail before Linux equivalents. Linux/BIND is mentioned but not explored in depth, and Linux-specific instructions or screenshots for DNS management are missing. The order of presentation and depth of coverage favors Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/BIND DNS management examples and screenshots, including how to view and manage DNS records and TTLs using Linux tools (e.g., BIND utilities, systemd-resolved, etc.).
- Include instructions for configuring dynamic DNS and secure DDNS on Linux/BIND servers, not just Microsoft AD DNS.
- Offer troubleshooting steps and packet capture analysis using Linux tools (e.g., tcpdump, Wireshark on Linux) alongside Windows examples.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux/BIND and Windows/AD DNS are given equal prominence and detail.
- Reference authoritative Linux/BIND documentation for DNS best practices, scavenging, and record management.
- Clarify which features are exclusive to Microsoft AD DNS and which are supported in Linux/BIND, and provide guidance for Linux users where features differ.
