Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric DNS concepts (such as conditional forwarders and DNS forwarders) and linking to Windows Server documentation for DNS configuration. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform DNS server examples, nor are Linux-native DNS solutions (like BIND or dnsmasq) mentioned. The guidance assumes familiarity with Windows DNS paradigms and omits Linux-specific configuration steps or references.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit examples and references for configuring DNS forwarding and conditional forwarding using popular Linux DNS servers (e.g., BIND, dnsmasq, Unbound).
- Provide links to both Windows and Linux DNS server documentation when discussing DNS forwarders and conditional forwarders.
- Add sample configuration snippets for Linux-based DNS servers alongside any Windows Server or Azure Firewall examples.
- Use neutral terminology (e.g., 'DNS server' instead of 'DNS forwarder') and clarify that both Windows and Linux DNS solutions are supported.
- Ensure diagrams and scenario descriptions mention cross-platform DNS options, not just Windows-centric tools.
