Summary:
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias, particularly in its references to DNS forwarders and conditional forwarding. It references Windows Server DNS concepts and documentation, and does not provide explicit Linux/BIND/unbound examples or mention Linux DNS solutions. The term 'DNS forwarder' is used generically, but links and explanations are Windows-centric. There are no command-line or configuration examples for either platform, but the only external DNS implementation guidance points to Windows Server. Linux DNS solutions are not mentioned, and there are no Linux-specific configuration links or examples.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit references to Linux DNS solutions (e.g., BIND, dnsmasq, Unbound) alongside Windows DNS when discussing DNS forwarders and conditional forwarding.
- Provide links to documentation for configuring conditional forwarding on common Linux DNS servers.
- Add example configuration snippets for both Windows Server DNS and Linux-based DNS servers.
- Use neutral language when describing DNS solutions (e.g., 'DNS server' instead of 'Windows DNS server'), and avoid linking only to Windows documentation.
- Where diagrams or scenarios mention DNS forwarders, clarify that both Windows and Linux DNS servers are supported, and provide parity in guidance.
