Summary
The tutorial exclusively demonstrates the deployment and testing of Azure Firewall using a Windows Server 2019 virtual machine. All instructions for creating and accessing the test workload VM are Windows-centric, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. The remote desktop testing step assumes RDP and Windows tools, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux VM creation, SSH access, or browser testing from non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions for deploying a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) in the workload subnet, including steps for SSH access and browser installation.
- Include testing steps for Linux users, such as using SSH to connect to the VM and using Firefox/Chrome to verify firewall rules.
- Mention that the firewall and policy configuration applies equally to Linux workloads, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where steps differ (e.g., remote access methods).
- Present both Windows and Linux VM creation options side-by-side to improve parity.
- Clarify that the tutorial is not limited to Windows workloads and that Azure Firewall supports any OS.
