Using scutil to turn on AppleTalk/set Proxies

I was using ncutil to turn on AppleTalk and set the computer Proxies. I'm hoping I can switch to scutil. I tried turning on AppleTalk with:

scutil
open
d.init
d.add InterfaceName en0
add State:/Network/Service/0/AppleTalk
close

But nothing happens.  It does populate the keys:

Setup:/Network/Service/0/AppleTalk
State:/Network/Global/AppleTalk
State:/Network/Interface/en0/AppleTalk
State:/Network/Service/0/AppleTalk

I suspect I have to notify something or run the kicker script, but I can't seem to find anything that really states what I should be doing and so far experimentation has produced no results.

I did read a few years back that scutil was not recommended to make a change like this (to the persistent data store). So I'm also wondering if that is still true. Should I just stick with ncutil? (I'm trying to reduce the extra requirements of some management scripts I maintain, and reducing the requirement of ncutil would be a nice one).
