Summary
The documentation frequently presents Windows/PowerShell examples and tools (e.g., psping.exe) first, with Linux alternatives either mentioned after or omitted. Some troubleshooting commands are only shown for Windows (psping.exe), while Linux users are only briefly referenced (telnet) without parity in advanced troubleshooting steps. The use of Windows-specific tools and the lack of equivalent Linux/macOS commands in some sections create friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all troubleshooting commands, such as using 'nc' (netcat) or 'nmap' for port checks and connection tests.
- When introducing tools like psping.exe, also mention cross-platform alternatives (e.g., 'hping3', 'nc', or 'nmap') and provide example commands.
- Ensure that Linux/macOS examples are given equal prominence, ideally presenting both Windows and Linux/macOS commands side by side.
- Avoid referencing Windows tools (like .exe utilities) without Linux/macOS counterparts, or clearly state if a step is Windows-only and provide alternatives where possible.
