Summary:
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for finding outbound IP addresses, but the PowerShell examples are given equal prominence and are not explicitly marked as Windows-only, which may confuse Linux/macOS users. There are no explicit Linux shell or Bash alternatives for PowerShell commands, and the documentation does not clarify that Azure PowerShell is primarily a Windows tool. Additionally, outbound IPv6 support is noted as being available only for Windows apps, with no Linux parity or roadmap mentioned.
Recommendations:
- Clearly indicate that Azure PowerShell commands are primarily for Windows environments, and recommend Azure CLI for cross-platform use.
- Provide Bash or shell script equivalents for PowerShell commands where possible, or clarify when no equivalent exists.
- In sections where both CLI and PowerShell are shown, present the Azure CLI (cross-platform) example first, and PowerShell second.
- Explicitly state the platform limitations for outbound IPv6 support and, if possible, provide a roadmap or alternatives for Linux users.
- Add a note or table summarizing which tools/commands are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
