Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by focusing its main example on testing RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) connectivity, which is specific to Windows VMs. There are no equivalent examples for common Linux connectivity scenarios (such as SSH), and the only explicit example provided is for RDP. While the prerequisites mention both Linux and Windows VMs, the step-by-step instructions and screenshots are tailored to a Windows-centric use case, and no Linux-specific protocols or ports are demonstrated.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples for Linux VMs, such as testing SSH (port 22) connectivity, alongside the RDP example.
  • In the 'Test inbound connections' section, add a table row and screenshot for SSH (Linux) in addition to RDP (Windows).
  • Explicitly mention that the steps apply to both Linux and Windows VMs, and clarify which service types (RDP, SSH, etc.) are relevant for each OS.
  • Ensure that the documentation alternates or balances the order of Windows and Linux examples, or presents them together, to avoid the perception of Windows-first bias.
