Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-based remote desktop solutions (specifically Remote Desktop Gateway and RDP), and linking only to Windows Server documentation for remote access. There are no mentions or examples of Linux-based remote access tools (such as SSH or Linux-compatible RDP alternatives), nor are there examples or guidance for Linux VM management. The order of presentation also places Windows-centric solutions before any mention of cross-platform or Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-based remote access options, such as SSH, alongside or before RDP/Remote Desktop Gateway when discussing remote connectivity to lab VMs.
- Provide examples or links for managing Linux VMs in DevTest Labs, including automation and scripting with Bash or other Linux-native tools.
- Reference cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) equally with PowerShell, and provide usage examples for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Link to documentation on securing and accessing Linux VMs (e.g., SSH key management, Linux firewall configuration) in addition to Windows-specific resources.
- Explicitly state that DevTest Labs supports both Windows and Linux VMs, and highlight any differences or considerations for each platform.
