Summary
The documentation shows a clear Windows bias: PowerShell/Windows tools (psping.exe) are featured prominently, with Windows commands given first and in more detail. Linux alternatives are either missing or only briefly mentioned. For example, the main port-checking example uses a Windows-only tool, and the Linux example (telnet) is less robust and not equivalent. Other troubleshooting steps reference Windows tools without Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-native command examples (e.g., use 'nc' or 'nmap' instead of 'telnet' for port checking, and show full command syntax).
  • Present Windows and Linux examples side-by-side for all troubleshooting steps, ensuring parity in detail and capability.
  • Mention cross-platform or Linux tools (e.g., 'tcpping' for Linux, or 'hping3') wherever Windows tools are referenced.
  • Avoid giving Windows examples first by default; alternate or present both at the same time.
  • Clarify tool availability and installation steps for both platforms.
  • Ensure that all troubleshooting steps are actionable on both Windows and Linux environments.
