put ipfw_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf - keep in mind default is deny

use firewall_enable="YES" and  firewall_type="open" in /etc/rc.conf

Available values for firewall_type:

    *

      open -- pass all traffic.

    *

      client -- will protect only this machine.

    *

      simple -- protect the whole network.

    *

      closed -- entirely disables IP traffic except for the loopback
      interface.

    *

      UNKNOWN -- disables the loading of firewall rules.

    *

      /filename/ -- absolute path of file containing firewall rules
