Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. All Azure-side command-line examples use PowerShell, with no Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux/macOS equivalents provided. Network validation and failover testing examples use Windows tools (tracert) and Windows-style paths (C:\Users\...), with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., traceroute). Windows tools and patterns are presented first and exclusively, creating friction for Linux/macOS users who must translate these steps themselves.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI (az) or Bash equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for ExpressRoute and VPN gateway route validation and failover steps.
  • Include Linux/macOS traceroute examples alongside Windows tracert, and clarify any differences in output or usage.
  • Use generic file paths and command prompts in examples, or show both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
  • Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed from Linux/macOS, and link to relevant cross-platform Azure CLI documentation.
  • Where screenshots or diagrams show Windows-specific interfaces, add notes or images for Linux/macOS environments if relevant.
