Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing all Azure-side command-line examples exclusively in PowerShell, with no equivalent Azure CLI (cross-platform) or Bash examples. Additionally, network validation steps from the client side use Windows tools (tracert) and Windows-style paths (C:\Users\...), with no mention of Linux alternatives (e.g., traceroute). This may disadvantage users operating from Linux or macOS environments.
Recommendations
  • For every PowerShell example, provide an equivalent Azure CLI (az) command example, which is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
  • When demonstrating network validation from the client side, include both Windows (tracert) and Linux (traceroute) command examples.
  • Use generic file paths or clarify that steps apply to both Windows and Linux environments where possible.
  • Explicitly mention that the procedures are applicable regardless of the on-premises OS, and provide guidance or links for users on non-Windows systems.
  • Consider including Bash script snippets or references to Linux-native tools for parity.
