Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows. Gateway-required virtual network integration is explicitly stated to only work for Windows plans, with Linux apps not supported. All troubleshooting and connectivity examples use Windows-specific tools and commands (e.g., PowerShell's Test-NetConnection, netstat -aon), with no mention of Linux equivalents. There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or troubleshooting steps, and the documentation does not acknowledge how Linux users might perform similar tasks.
Recommendations
  • Clearly state at the beginning that gateway-required virtual network integration is not supported for Linux apps, and provide a prominent pointer to regional virtual network integration for Linux users.
  • Where Windows-only features or tools are discussed, provide equivalent Linux guidance or explicitly state that the feature is not available for Linux.
  • In troubleshooting sections, include Linux command equivalents for network testing (e.g., use 'nc', 'ss', or 'netcat' for TCP connectivity, 'lsof' or 'ss' for port listening, and 'dig' or 'host' for DNS resolution).
  • When referencing environment variables or the Kudu console, mention how Linux users can access similar information (e.g., via SSH or the Azure portal).
  • Add a summary table or section comparing feature support and troubleshooting steps for Windows vs. Linux, to help users quickly understand platform differences.
