Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. It references Windows-specific certificate export defaults (3DES from Windows 10/Server 2016), the Microsoft RSA/Schannel Cryptographic Provider (Windows-only), and recommends certificate creation via Azure PowerShell cmdlets and the Azure Stack Hub Readiness Checker tool (both Windows-centric). There are no Linux/macOS certificate creation or export examples, nor are cross-platform tools (like OpenSSL) mentioned.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/macOS certificate creation and export instructions using OpenSSL or other cross-platform tools.
  • Clarify how to set required certificate attributes (e.g., key usage, enhanced key usage, encryption) using non-Windows tools.
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting and next steps for Linux/macOS users, including equivalent commands and workflows.
  • Mention how to ensure compatibility with the Microsoft RSA/Schannel provider when certificates are generated outside Windows.
