Summary
This documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias in its test and validation steps. While infrastructure setup uses both Ubuntu (for the simulated NVA) and Windows Server, all test virtual machines in the spokes are Windows Server 2022, and all validation instructions (IIS installation, connectivity tests) are exclusively for Windows (using Microsoft Edge, IIS, PowerShell). There are no equivalent Linux examples for deploying, configuring, or testing with a Linux VM in the spokes. The instructions for installing and testing web servers, as well as connectivity validation, are Windows-centric, making it harder for Linux/macOS users to follow or adapt the tutorial.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel instructions for deploying a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) in the spokes, including portal and PowerShell steps.
  • Provide Linux equivalents for IIS installation, such as installing Apache or Nginx, and show how to test connectivity using curl or a browser.
  • Include validation steps for Linux VMs (e.g., SSH into the VM, check outbound IP with curl, verify inter-spoke routing with curl or wget).
  • Ensure all PowerShell scripts have Bash/Azure CLI equivalents for Linux users.
  • Present both Windows and Linux examples side-by-side, or allow users to choose their preferred OS path.
