Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a notable Windows bias: all virtual machine examples use Windows Server, and the only automation/script example is a PowerShell command for IIS installation. There are no Linux VM examples, nor any Bash/Azure CLI instructions. The documentation assumes Windows usage for both workload and on-premises VMs, and for management tasks, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux-based virtual machines (e.g., Ubuntu) in the spoke and on-premises networks.
- Include Azure CLI and/or Bash alternatives for VM extension installation and management tasks, alongside PowerShell examples.
- When demonstrating firewall rule testing, mention Linux-compatible methods (e.g., SSH, curl, or browser access from a Linux VM).
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default OS for workload and management VMs; offer OS-neutral or cross-platform guidance.
- Explicitly state that the tutorial steps are applicable to both Windows and Linux environments, and clarify any OS-specific differences.
