Summary
The documentation lists both Windows and Linux-related endpoints, but there is a subtle Windows bias: Windows NTP is mentioned explicitly before any Linux time source, and endpoints such as sts.windows.net, login.windows.net, and time.windows.com are highlighted. The notes for NTP mention only the Windows NTP server and Hyper-V defaults, with no reference to Linux NTP servers or alternatives. The Azure CLI installer download is mentioned, but there is no explicit guidance for Linux package managers or installation methods. Overall, the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-centric endpoints and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit references to Linux NTP servers (e.g., pool.ntp.org) and clarify when time.windows.com is only needed for Windows-based deployments.
  • Provide guidance or notes for Linux management machines, such as how to install Azure CLI via native package managers (apt, yum, etc.), and clarify if any endpoints are Windows-specific.
  • Where endpoints or tools are Windows-specific (e.g., sts.windows.net, login.windows.net), clarify their relevance for Linux deployments or provide Linux equivalents if applicable.
  • Ensure examples and notes mention both Windows and Linux scenarios, especially for network configuration and tool installation.
