Summary
The documentation page exhibits a mild Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools and scenarios (such as KMS activation and Windows Update/Defender endpoints) without mentioning Linux equivalents or clarifying their relevance for non-Windows environments. Additionally, some linked content (e.g., VPN Gateway connections via PowerShell) suggests a Windows-first approach. There are no Linux-specific examples or guidance, and the documentation does not address how requirements differ for Linux-based deployments.
Recommendations
- Where Windows-specific endpoints or ports are mentioned (e.g., KMS activation, Windows Update, Windows Defender), clarify that these are only required for Windows VMs and note that Linux VMs do not require these settings.
- Add a section or notes on Linux VM requirements, explicitly stating if any ports or endpoints are needed for Linux (e.g., for package updates or diagnostics), or confirm that no special configuration is needed.
- When referencing tools or scripts (such as PowerShell), provide equivalent instructions or links for Linux environments (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts).
- Review related links and ensure parity by including Linux-focused or cross-platform documentation where available.
- Consider adding a table or callout summarizing differences in network requirements between Windows and Linux VM scenarios.
