What is the best way to redirect node to node

Question

I am trying to figure out what is the best way to create a redirect from one node to another. For example, say we have two nodes:

node/1 | path-one
node/2 | path-two

I created the following redirect:

But when visiting path-one it still shows node/1 instead of redirecting to node/2.

The only way I can do it is to remove the path alias for node/1 and then it works.

Try the redirect when logged out of your admin account as I believe when logged in as an admin any redirects from a page that exists won't get triggered. This is to allow you to be able to still access that page as an administrator
