Summary
The documentation page lists networking requirements for Microsoft Defender for IoT, and while it is largely platform-neutral, it does show some Windows bias. Specifically, it references WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) and Windows Endpoint Monitoring as a monitoring method, with no equivalent mention of Linux monitoring tools or protocols. Additionally, the Windows-specific tool (WMI) is mentioned before SNMP, which is cross-platform, and there are no Linux-specific examples or references.
Recommendations
- Include Linux monitoring protocols and tools (e.g., SSH-based monitoring, collectd, or syslog) alongside WMI.
- Provide examples or references for Linux endpoint monitoring, not just Windows.
- When listing protocols, avoid putting Windows-specific tools (like WMI) before cross-platform or Linux-native options unless there is a clear reason.
- Add a section or note on how to monitor Linux endpoints, including relevant ports and protocols.
