Summary
The documentation is notably Windows-centric in its testing and validation steps. While deployment and resource management are shown using both Azure CLI and PowerShell (which are cross-platform), the actual firewall testing instructions exclusively use Windows Server VMs, Remote Desktop, and Internet Explorer, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based test VMs or SSH-based connectivity.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for deploying and testing with Linux VMs, such as using SSH to connect and curl/wget to validate allowed/blocked outbound connections.
  • Mention cross-platform browsers (e.g., Edge, Chrome, Firefox) instead of Internet Explorer, or provide browser-agnostic instructions.
  • Add examples for connecting to VMs from Linux/macOS clients, not just via Remote Desktop.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and provide any necessary platform-specific notes.
