opinion on this ruleset

I was wondering if I could get some opinions on this ruleset please - 

Basically, I have FreeBSD6.1, running an IRC server on ports 6697, 7000,
6659 thorough to 6671, 9999, 27888.  I am also running a nameserver, so have
opened TCP and UDP 53.  I also want incoming on port 80 and 22.

I have about 15 IP addresses assigned to my external interface... would it
be better to make a table for these?  Or is using the ext_if as a macro just
as effective?


ext_if="rl0"

tcp_services="{ 22, 80, 53, 6633, 6697, 7000, 6659 >< 6671, 9999, 27888  }"
udp_services="{ 53 }
icmp_types="echoreq"

set block-policy return
set loginterface $ext_if

set skip on lo
scrub in

block in

pass out keep state

antispoof quick for { lo $int_if }

pass in on $ext_if inet proto tcp from any to ($ext_if) \
   port $tcp_services flags S/SA keep state

pass in on $ext_if inet proto udp from any to ($ext_if) \
   port $udp_services keep state


pass in inet proto icmp all icmp-type $icmp_types keep state
