Summary
The documentation page shows mild Windows bias, primarily in the mention of Windows-specific update servers (WSUS) and the default use of the public Windows update server. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or references to equivalent Linux tools for network readiness or update management. The checklist and instructions do not mention Linux/macOS-specific patterns, nor do they provide parity for users who might be managing the device from non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS compatibility for device management tasks, such as certificate generation and network configuration.
  • Provide examples or references for Linux/macOS users, such as using chrony/ntpd for NTP configuration, or alternatives to WSUS for updates.
  • Clarify whether the Azure Stack Edge Network Readiness Tool and other utilities are cross-platform, and provide usage instructions for Linux/macOS if available.
  • Avoid referring to Windows tools (e.g., WSUS) as defaults without mentioning alternatives or stating platform requirements.
  • Add notes or sections for Linux/macOS users where relevant, especially for tasks like static IP configuration, certificate management, and device activation.
