Summary
The documentation generally avoids explicit Windows bias in most troubleshooting steps, focusing on cross-platform tools like Azure CLI and kubectl. However, in the section on capturing network packet traces for Layered Network Management, the Windows host instructions (using Wireshark) are presented before the Linux host instructions (using tcpdump), and Wireshark (a GUI Windows tool) is mentioned as the default for opening trace files. There are no PowerShell-specific examples, but the ordering and tool choices show a mild Windows-first and Windows-tools bias. In other sections, Linux-native commands (kubectl, bash) are used, but there are no explicit Linux-first or Linux-only examples, and some steps (e.g., rebooting the host) are generic.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel tabs or sections, or alternate which platform appears first to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • When suggesting tools for packet capture, mention both Wireshark and tcpdump for both platforms, and clarify that Wireshark is available on Linux as well.
  • Where possible, provide CLI-based alternatives for Windows users (e.g., using tshark or tcpdump on Windows), not just GUI tools.
  • Ensure that all examples and troubleshooting steps are clearly marked as applicable to both Windows and Linux, or provide explicit instructions for both.
  • Consider including a table or matrix summarizing which tools/commands are available on which platforms.
