Clicking the URL for the Windows Azure XPlatCLI results in a runtime error page (yet the DL occurs).

I ended up downloading the package 4 times (hitting refresh).

Maybe a better link exists. Perhaps the aka./ms http://aka.ms/webpi-azure-cli

If students use Docker Container version of Azure-CLI, then they are unable to run the "azure vm docker create" commands at the beginning of lab...

NPM install of Azure-CLI on Windows workd fine...

Verified version 0.10.1 of CLI on both docker and NPM

Some of the labs require openssl on windows. I have it setup and didn't think to tackle this topic. I added C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin to my path use this powershell script.

$OpenSSLDir=(($Env:Path).Split(";") | Get-ChildItem -filter openssl*).DirectoryName | Select -First 1
$new_path = "$env:PATH;$OpenSSLDir"
$env:PATH=$new_path
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("path", $new_path, "Machine")

not sure if this is a bug in your lab or if this is a bug in the azure cli, but I am getting an error when trying to deploy a swarm template:

Lab 4 uses a local instance of docker-machine to deploy a swarm cluster on Azure. This is the only lab that requires a local installation of docker.

But back in Lab 2, the student created a VM on Azure running docker. I would suggest that Lab 4 be modified to re-use the VM from Lab 2. The first step could be to install docker-machine on that Linux VM. Then the rest of Lab 4 could continue as-is.
This would remove any requirement that the students have docker installed locally.

This should do two things:

1. Show how to setup a Dev Workflow
2. Operationalize == Deployment and Mangement
