Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in several areas: the VM creation example uses a Windows image (Win2022Datacenter) exclusively, and the connectivity test instructions specify opening PowerShell and using Windows-centric tools (nslookup in PowerShell) without mentioning Linux alternatives. There are no examples for creating a Linux VM or testing connectivity from a Linux shell, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples for creating a Linux VM (e.g., using --image UbuntuLTS) alongside the Windows VM example.
  • Include instructions for testing connectivity using Linux tools (e.g., using dig or nslookup in a bash shell) and clarify that these steps work on both Windows and Linux VMs.
  • When referencing shell commands, use platform-neutral language or show both bash and PowerShell syntax where relevant.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure Bastion supports both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide guidance for connecting to Linux VMs via Bastion.
