2.1 works 2.2 fails

We have a working EFW 2.1 and Installed EFW 2.2 on another box.
Set initial configuration on the new EFW box to match the Old one.

Added the RED zone IP of the DMZ boxes to the the "main interface" Network->Interfaces-> edit "Main uplink"  all the IP's are in the same 255.255.255.128 subnet  ( say 102.213.85.0/25). the DMZ address are all 10.123.59.0/24 address. Port forwarding rules are set to point to the correct host ( RED-IP:port(s)  -> Orange-IP:port(s)).

Pulled cables from Old EFW attached them to correct NICs in the new EFW and nothing appears to get in or out.

Did some messing around with SNAT rules still no luck.
Two hours later back to the OLD EFW box, every thing appears good to go.

How does one correctly go about doing Alias functions for EFW 2.2?
