Summary:
The documentation exclusively uses Azure PowerShell cmdlets for all configuration steps, with no mention of Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives. All examples and instructions assume the use of PowerShell, which is traditionally associated with Windows environments, and there is no guidance for users on Linux or macOS. The prerequisites and setup sections also reference Azure PowerShell specifically, reinforcing a Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) command examples for all configuration steps, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
- Include a section or notes on how to perform these tasks using Bash or in a Linux/macOS environment, clarifying any differences or prerequisites.
- Mention that Azure PowerShell can be used on Linux and macOS, but also highlight the availability and parity of Azure CLI.
- Reorganize the documentation so that cross-platform tools (like Azure CLI) are presented before or alongside PowerShell, rather than only after or not at all.
- Add links to official Azure CLI documentation for ExpressRoute where appropriate.

> To delete an IPv6 Global Reach connection, specify an *-AddressPrefixType* of *IPv6* as follows.
> [!NOTE]
> To enable IPv6 support for ExpressRoute Global Reach, specify a /125 IPv6 subnet for *-AddressPrefix* and an *-AddressPrefixType* of *IPv6*.
To check the *CircuitConnectionStatus* run `$ckt_1` in PowerShell. It indicates whether the connectivity is **Connected** or **Disconnected**.
## Disable connectivity
To disable connectivity between your on-premises networks, run the following commands against the circuit where the configuration was made (for example, circuit 1 in the previous example).
