Adding Load Balancer Rule via Powershell

I'm attempting to add a load balancer rule via Powershell as we need to open multiple ports for passive ftp.

Connect-AzureRmAccount

Set-AzureRmContext -SubscriptionId "MySubId"

$slb = Get-AzureRmLoadBalancer -Name "MyLB" -ResourceGroupName "MyRG"

$prb = Get-AzureRmLoadBalancerProbeConfig -Name "MyProbe" -LoadBalancer $slb

$beaddpool = Get-AzureRmLoadBalancerBackendAddressPoolConfig -Name "BEADDPOOL" -LoadBalancer $slb

$slb | Add-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig -Name "PassivePort_50010" -FrontendIPConfiguration $slb.FrontendIpConfigurations[0] -BackendAddressPool $beaddpool -Protocol "Tcp" -FrontendPort 50010 -BackendPort 50010 -Probe $prb -IdleTimeoutInMinutes 4

$slb | Set-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig -Name "PassivePort_50010" -FrontendIPConfiguration $slb.FrontendIpConfigurations[0] -BackendAddressPool $beaddpool -Protocol "Tcp" -FrontendPort 50010 -BackendPort 50010 -Probe $prb -IdleTimeoutInMinutes 4

As you can see above, I'm logging in, grabbing the LB in question, the LB Probe and the LB BackEndAddressPool. I'm then using Add-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig and Set-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig as mentioned in the documentation

I can see from the PowerShell output that the rule is there. However it lacks one obvious property in comparison to those added via the portal.

"ProvisioningState": "Succeeded"

The new rule is not shown in the portal, but is visible when getting the LB via PS.

Is there a way I'm missing to ensure the rule is displayed in the azure portal? Or does the rule take much longer to be provisioned in this way?

After you've created properties you need to apply them:

$slb | Set-AzureRmLoadBalancer
