Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias in its testing and validation steps. While the Azure CLI commands are cross-platform, the examples for creating and testing virtual machines use only Windows images, and all instructions for connectivity, firewall configuration, and DNS resolution are given exclusively using Windows PowerShell and Windows tools. There are no Linux VM creation examples, nor are there instructions for Linux/macOS users to configure firewalls or test DNS resolution.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux VM creation examples (e.g., using --image UbuntuLTS) alongside Windows examples.
  • Provide instructions for configuring firewalls to allow ICMP on Linux (e.g., using ufw or firewalld).
  • Add DNS resolution test steps for Linux/macOS (e.g., using ping, dig, or nslookup from a Bash shell).
  • Show output examples for Linux/macOS terminals in addition to Windows PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention that the Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run from Linux/macOS.
