Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-related FQDNs (e.g., WindowsUpdate, login.windows.net), describing 'Windows login activity', and referencing Windows-centric services before Linux equivalents. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples (e.g., Bash, CLI), and the only Linux-specific mention is a single rule for Ubuntu updates, which is less emphasized. The documentation lacks parity in examples or guidance for Linux users, especially regarding SSH access, firewall rules for Linux tools, or Linux-specific update sources.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-focused examples and explanations alongside Windows ones, such as referencing both Windows and Linux update sources and login endpoints.
  • Include explicit Bash or Azure CLI command-line examples for configuring firewall rules, route tables, and network settings, not just portal-based instructions.
  • Clarify that HDInsight clusters can run Linux and Windows workloads, and specify any differences in firewall or network configuration for each OS.
  • Expand the 'Target FQDNs' section to include common Linux package repositories (e.g., for CentOS, Red Hat, or other supported distributions) if applicable.
  • Add SSH access examples and troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux users, including how to configure firewall and NSG rules for Linux SSH clients.
  • Ensure that all references to 'Windows login activity' are balanced with explanations of authentication flows for Linux-based clusters.
