Summary:
The tutorial demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using a Windows Server virtual machine for the workload example and only describing remote desktop (RDP) access and Microsoft Edge browser for testing. There are no Linux VM deployment instructions, nor are there SSH or Linux-based testing steps. The documentation assumes a Windows environment for both deployment and validation, omitting Linux alternatives.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel instructions for deploying a Linux virtual machine (e.g., Ubuntu) in the workload subnet, including sample configuration values.
- Include steps for connecting to the Linux VM using SSH, and for testing outbound access using Linux command-line tools (e.g., curl or wget) instead of only Microsoft Edge.
- Demonstrate how to configure DNS settings on a Linux VM (e.g., by editing /etc/resolv.conf or using netplan), not just via the Azure portal.
- When describing firewall rules (such as DNAT), include examples for both RDP (Windows) and SSH (Linux) to show parity.
- In the testing section, provide both Windows and Linux validation steps, ensuring users on either platform can follow along.
