Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows 11 is the only VM image explicitly recommended for the tutorial, and all instructions for enabling ICMP (ping) on lab VMs use Windows PowerShell commands with no Linux equivalent. The process for connecting to VMs is described in terms of RDP, which is Windows-centric, and while SSH is mentioned as an alternative for Linux, no concrete Linux examples or commands are provided. The order of presentation and examples consistently favor Windows tools and workflows.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux examples for enabling ICMP (e.g., using ufw or iptables to allow ping).
  • Include instructions for connecting to Linux VMs via SSH, with sample commands and screenshots.
  • Mention Linux VM images as equally valid choices in the lab creation steps, and provide guidance for selecting and configuring them.
  • Where PowerShell commands are shown, offer equivalent bash or shell commands for Linux.
  • Ensure troubleshooting and next steps sections address common Linux/macOS scenarios.
