Summary
The documentation provides step-by-step instructions for configuring an outbound-only load balancer in Azure, but all virtual machine creation and connectivity testing examples use Windows Server as the VM image and Microsoft Edge as the browser. There are no Linux VM creation examples, nor instructions for Linux-based connectivity testing. This creates a subtle but notable bias toward Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Include parallel instructions for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) alongside the Windows VM example.
  • Provide guidance for connecting to a Linux VM via Bastion (using SSH and a browser such as Firefox or Chrome).
  • Show how to test outbound connectivity from a Linux VM (e.g., using curl or a browser).
  • Explicitly mention that the configuration works for both Windows and Linux VMs, and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
