Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. It references PowerShell and Windows credentials as prerequisites for discovery, and mentions Windows/Domain accounts and Windows OS credentials exclusively for authentication. There are no examples or instructions for Linux-based environments, nor are Linux tools or credential patterns discussed. The order and language suggest Windows as the primary or default platform, with Linux and macOS users left to infer equivalence or workaround steps.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux-based environments, including how to provide credentials and perform discovery from Linux servers.
  • Mention Linux authentication patterns (e.g., SSH keys, local Linux users) and clarify how the appliance interacts with non-Windows operating systems.
  • If PowerShell is required, provide alternatives or note how Linux users can install and use PowerShell Core, or offer Bash/Shell script equivalents.
  • Clarify whether the appliance supports discovery from Linux hosts and, if so, detail any differences in setup or requirements.
  • Present Linux/macOS examples alongside Windows, or at least note their parity, rather than referencing Windows tools and patterns first.
