Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a notable Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server as the VM image, guiding users to connect via RDP, and referencing Microsoft Edge for browsing. There are no instructions or examples for creating or connecting to Linux VMs, nor for using SSH or Linux-native tools. The workflow assumes Windows as the default platform for both VM creation and user interaction.
Recommendations
- Include parallel instructions for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) and connecting via SSH.
- Show how to open the downloaded flow log file using common Linux text editors (e.g., nano, vim, gedit) or command-line tools (e.g., cat, jq).
- Provide examples of accessing the VM and downloading logs from Linux/macOS clients, including use of Azure CLI and Storage Explorer on those platforms.
- Mention that the Azure portal and Storage Explorer are cross-platform, and clarify any platform-specific steps.
- When listing VM images, present both Windows and Linux options, or let the user choose.
