Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in several areas. In the connectivity validation table, Windows tools (PsPing, PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest) are listed with explicit links, while Linux tools are mentioned generically and without links. In troubleshooting sections, PowerShell commands are provided for resolving VM NIC failed states, but no equivalent CLI or Linux-native instructions are given. Azure Resource Explorer instructions recommend Microsoft Edge, a Windows-centric browser, without alternatives. Overall, Linux users are left to infer or research their own methods for several key troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI or Bash examples alongside PowerShell commands for managing network interfaces and other resources.
  • Include explicit Linux tool links and usage examples (e.g., nc, curl) in the connectivity validation table, matching the detail given for Windows tools.
  • Offer browser-agnostic instructions for Azure Resource Explorer, or mention alternatives for non-Windows users.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps are platform-neutral or include both Windows and Linux/macOS workflows.
