Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows-centric bias. Command-line examples (such as nslookup) are shown exclusively with Windows-style prompts (e.g., 'c:\ >'), and PowerShell-specific tools like Test-NetConnection are referenced without Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no explicit Linux shell or command examples, nor any mention of Linux-specific troubleshooting steps or tools. Instructions for editing the hosts file and other system operations implicitly assume a Windows environment, and no guidance is provided for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell command examples (e.g., use 'dig' or 'host' alongside 'nslookup', and show Linux shell prompts such as '$').
  • When referencing PowerShell-specific tools like Test-NetConnection, also mention Linux alternatives (e.g., 'nc', 'telnet', or 'curl').
  • Include instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux systems (e.g., '/etc/hosts') in addition to Windows.
  • Use neutral or cross-platform language in command examples and screenshots (avoid only showing 'c:\ >' prompts).
  • Explicitly state that the troubleshooting steps apply to both Windows and Linux appliances, and call out any differences where relevant.
  • Add a section or callouts for Linux-specific troubleshooting considerations, especially for common network and DNS tools.
