Description

The New-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig cmdlet creates a rule configuration for an Azure load balancer.

Examples

1: Creating a rule configuration for an Azure Load Balancer

PS C:\>  $publicip = New-AzureRmPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName "MyResourceGroup" 
    -name MyPublicIP -location 'West US' -AllocationMethod Dynamic
PS C:\>  $frontend = New-AzureRmLoadBalancerFrontendIpConfig -Name MyFrontEnd 
    -PublicIpAddress $publicip
PS C:\>  $probe = New-AzureRmLoadBalancerProbeConfig -Name MyProbe -Protocol http -Port 
    80 -IntervalInSeconds 15 -ProbeCount 2 -RequestPath healthcheck.aspx
PS C:\> New-AzureRmLoadBalancerRuleConfig -Name "MyLBrule" -FrontendIPConfiguration 
    $frontend -BackendAddressPool $backendAddressPool -Probe $probe -Protocol Tcp 
    -FrontendPort 80 -BackendPort 80 -IdleTimeoutInMinutes 15 -EnableFloatingIP 
    -LoadDistribution SourceIP

The first three commands set up a public IP, a front end, and a probe for the rule configuration in the forth command. The forth command creates a new rule called MyLBrule with certain specifications.
