If I understand what you are saying, it should be doing this
already. That is, natd(8) passes through anything it does not modify
untouched. It does not drop (any normal) packets.

But if you are still having problems, you will need to be more
specific about your natd(8) configuration, your ipfw(8) rules, your
network topology, and what exactly is not working.
