How can you place a dynamically assigned dhclient ip address into an ipfw
ruleset?

I've gotten used to writing rules based on external interface ip addresses
and network ranges, however, now i'd like to write a ruleset that would work
to firewall a small network behind a dsl router with a dynamically assigned
ip.

I've gotten dhclient working, but i'm stumped as to how to get the
dynamically assigned ip address into the ruleset.

TIA
