Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows Server as the example operating system for the workload VM and only describes remote desktop (RDP) access and Internet Explorer for testing, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. There are no instructions or examples for deploying a Linux VM, connecting via SSH, or using Linux-native tools to test firewall rules. This creates friction for users who prefer or require Linux workloads.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions for deploying a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) in the workload subnet, including relevant settings.
- Include examples for connecting to the Linux VM using SSH (with port 22 DNAT rule), alongside the Windows RDP example.
- Provide testing steps using Linux tools (e.g., curl, wget, dig) to verify firewall rules.
- Mention browser alternatives (e.g., Firefox, Chrome) for Linux/macOS users instead of only Internet Explorer.
- Explicitly state that the procedure works for both Windows and Linux VMs, and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
