client (10.0.1.1) -----> bridge (10.0.5.123) -----> server (10.0.0.2) 

ifnet = "bridge0"
rdr on $ifnet proto tcp from any to any port 12345 -> 10.0.5.123 port 12345
rdr on $ifnet proto udp from any to any port 12345 -> 10.0.5.123 port 12345

net.inet.ip.forwarding=1

To test my redirection I run:

server# nc -u -l 12345
client# nc -u 10.0.0.2 12345

For UDP it works, for TCP it doesn't:

server# nc -l 12345
client# nc 10.0.0.2 12345

Although it works even with bridge0 and TCP connections, but when bridge
machine is treated as gateway, eg.

server# nc -l 12345
client# route add 1.0.0.0/24 10.0.5.123
client# nc 10.0.0.2 12345

That's not the case on my test machines.
