Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation consistently presents only Windows-based command-line examples (using 'tracert' and 'ping' with Windows prompt syntax), and all sample outputs are from Windows environments. There are no Linux or cross-platform equivalents provided, nor is there mention of Linux tools (such as 'traceroute' or 'ping' on Linux). The use of Windows-specific paths (e.g., 'C:\Users\rb>') and references to Windows command prompts further reinforce a Windows-centric perspective.
Recommendations:
  • For every Windows command-line example (e.g., 'tracert', 'ping'), provide the equivalent Linux command (e.g., 'traceroute', 'ping') and sample output.
  • Use neutral prompt symbols (such as '$' or '#') or provide both Windows and Linux prompt examples to avoid implying Windows as the default environment.
  • Mention and briefly describe both Windows and Linux tools for network diagnostics in Azure environments.
  • Where screenshots or output are shown, include Linux output as well, or clarify that the steps are applicable to both platforms.
  • Consider a short section or note at the beginning clarifying that all steps can be performed on both Windows and Linux, with examples for each.
