Sample IPFW firewall ruleset
Sample firewall script - this sets up a firewall on a "bastion" server that both runs publically accessible services and acts as a NAT-enabled firewall for a protected network running behind it. It's a plain-and-simple shell script that can be run directly from the command line - but remember, if you're running this on a "default deny" system (one which denies ALL connectivity from ANYwhere under the default ruleset - which is recommended in order to avoid a "race condition" situation in which an attacker could compromise the system before the ruleset is completely loaded), YOU WILL LOSE NETWORK CONNECTIVITY on the very first line of this script - meaning that you CANNOT run it from a remote shell session, or the script will stop operating before it ever punches any holes back through for you.
If you need to restart a firewall remotely, you'll need to use some trickery like scheduling it with the at scheduler. THAT will work, since it won't depend on network connectivity to finish running the script. However, if you're running untested modifications, you'll probably want to schedule ANOTHER job with at for 5 minutes later to pull your firewall back to a "known accessible" configuration, just in case you oopsied... could save you a long drive out to a colo.
With no further ado, here's the ipfw script.

######## SOME THINGS ARE TOO NOISY TO LIVE
######## In this section we deny things that would be denied anyway, but that we just
######## don't want logged. Be careful with this - in general, you probably want to
######## avoid putting anything in here that doesn't specify a known source address that
######## is relatively trustworthy. You also want to be very careful about who knows
######## what this section of your firewall configs looks like, because they can then
######## use the info to craft probes and attacks they know you won't see or log.

$cmd 9004 deny igmp from 172.16.210.1 to any in via $oif

######## Stealth scans of closed ports
######## this section is to deny and log stealth scans that we can't really deny
######## on open ports because doing so would disrupt legitimate services.

Sample /etc/natd.conf
Our bastion firewall/server will also need to handle NAT duties for the boxes it's protecting on the LAN side. /etc/natd.conf is the configuration file for natd, and will allow you to redirect ports from the public side to services on the LAN side, as well as handling standard NATting of connection requests from our protected network to the big bad Internet. Here's a sample /etc/natd.conf.
(Note that for redirection of services to work, you need matching entries in your IPFW ruleset after the NAT Divert rule to allow those services inbound access as well as entries in this /etc/natd.conf!)
# "interface" should be the WAN interface
interface xl0
use_sockets yes
same_ports yes
# set "dynamic" if the WAN interface is controlled by DHCP
dynamic yes
#VNC
redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.10:5900 5900
#KAZAA
redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.25:1214 1214
#SOULSEEK

redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.25:5534 5534
#EMULE

redirect_port udp 192.168.0.25:4672 4672
#BITTORRENT
redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.25:30000-40000 30000-40000
Sample /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf file
We're also going to want our bastion firewall/server to deliver DHCP leases to the computers on the protected network. So after installing the dhcp daemon from the /usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp3 port, you'll need to minimally configure it to actually deliver the leases to the clients. Here's a sample /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf file:
# dhcpd.conf
#
# Configuration file for ISC dhcpd
#
# option definitions common to all supported networks...
option domain-name "yourdomain.local";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.99;
default-lease-time 604800;
max-lease-time 2592000;
ddns-update-style none;
# If you have more than one subnet, list them seperately.
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.200 192.168.100.250;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
default-lease-time 4800;
max-lease-time 7200;
}
# This would be for a second subnet, if you had one:
# subnet 192.168.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
# range 192.168.5.200 192.168.5.254;
# option routers 192.168.5.1;
# option broadcast-address 192.168.5.255;
# default-lease-time 4800;
# max-lease-time 7200;
# }
