Summary

The documentation presents both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples for network security group configuration, but consistently lists PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) before CLI. The most detailed, step-by-step example is given in PowerShell, with CLI following. There are no Linux shell (bash) script examples for Azure CLI, and no explicit mention of using CLI on Linux, though CLI is cross-platform. However, the DNS configuration section is Linux-focused, and the 'Test your settings' section recommends using a Linux VM, partially balancing the bias.

Recommendations

Alternate the order of PowerShell and Azure CLI examples, or present CLI first to avoid implicit Windows-first bias.
Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide bash shell script examples where appropriate.
Add a short section or callout for Linux users, highlighting that all CLI steps are fully supported on Linux.
Where possible, provide bash script blocks for Azure CLI steps to demonstrate parity and usability for Linux users.
Consider including a table or quick reference comparing PowerShell and CLI commands, clarifying platform compatibility.
