Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. In troubleshooting sections, PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., PsPing, Invoke-WebRequest) are provided for Windows users, while Linux examples are less detailed or missing. For some tasks (e.g., resolving failed network interfaces), only PowerShell and Azure Resource Explorer (browser-based, with a browser recommendation) are described, with no equivalent Linux CLI or cross-platform Azure CLI guidance. In the connectivity validation table, Windows tools are named and linked, but Linux examples are generic and less supported. Windows approaches are sometimes presented first or exclusively.
Recommendations:
- For all PowerShell-based instructions, provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands, which are cross-platform and work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- In troubleshooting steps involving network interfaces, include az network nic commands for querying and updating provisioning state.
- In the connectivity validation table, provide more detailed Linux examples (e.g., using nc, curl, or ss for TCP/UDP tests) and link to relevant documentation.
- Avoid recommending specific browsers unless necessary; if a browser-based tool is required, clarify that it is platform-agnostic.
- Where Windows tools are linked (e.g., PsPing, Invoke-WebRequest), provide Linux tool links (e.g., netcat, curl, socat) and usage examples.
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific example or tool, there is a Linux (and ideally macOS) equivalent provided with equal detail and prominence.
