Summary:
The documentation consistently presents Windows as the default or only option for lab virtual machines, specifically instructing users to select 'Windows 11 Pro' as the VM image. There are no examples, instructions, or mentions of using Linux-based images or connecting to Linux VMs. All connection instructions reference Remote Desktop (RDP), which is primarily a Windows protocol, with no mention of SSH or Linux-compatible tools. No Linux-specific setup, customization, or troubleshooting is included.
Recommendations:
- Include Linux as an alternative in the 'Virtual machine image' selection step (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.), and provide parallel instructions for setting up a Linux-based lab.
- Add examples and screenshots for connecting to Linux VMs, such as using SSH clients (e.g., PuTTY, OpenSSH) instead of only RDP.
- Mention Linux-specific customization steps, such as installing software via apt/yum and setting up user accounts.
- Ensure troubleshooting and access instructions cover both Windows and Linux VM scenarios.
- Wherever possible, present Windows and Linux options side-by-side, or clarify that the instructions apply to both, with notes on differences.
