Redirecting Traffic with PF

Well, I don't use PF on FreeBSD (only on OpenBSD--and am no expert by
any means) but I would write that rule as
rdr pass on $extif inet proto udp from any to any port 27902 ->
192.168.2.11 port 27902
the difference being the addition of the "pass" keyword.
IF you have a block, then allow ruleset in PF (allowing in only known
good traffic) then you need to allow traffic on port 27902.
alternatively you could add another line
pass on any proto udp port 27902 keep state
you do NOT need to specify $intif on the rdr line.
you can also use the utility pftop (which is in the ports) tree to
monitor livetime what's going on. Similiar to doing "pfctl -ss"
