I've been through this just recently. Our "simple" prototype
is not production ready; if you just tune oip/iip/onet/inet,
etc., it won't allow your internal machines to talk outside.
The packet flow for a machine in ${inet}:${imask} talking outside
is as follows:
${inet}:${imask} -> some_host (in via ${iif})
${oip} -> some_host (out via ${oif}) (after NAT)
some_host -> ${inet}:${imask} (in via ${oif}) (after de-NAT)
some_host -> ${inet}:${imask} (out via ${iif})
(This assumes that you NAT using ${oip}, which is not always
the case.)
So, to make it work (if default is to "deny"), you need to add
the following rules at the end of the ruleset:
${fwcmd} add pass all from ${inet}:${imask} to any in via ${iif}
${fwcmd} add pass ip from ${oip} to any out via ${oif}
${fwcmd} add pass ip from any to ${inet}:${imask}
