Right, but ipfw nat is basically the userland libalias library loaded as a
kernel module, so the config parameters are the same.

$ grep MODULE_DEPEND /sys/netinet/ipfw/ip_fw_nat.c
MODULE_DEPEND(ipfw_nat, libalias, 1, 1, 1);
MODULE_DEPEND(ipfw_nat, ipfw, 2, 2, 2);

also, man ipfw:


NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION (NAT)
     ipfw support in-kernel NAT using the kernel version of libalias(3).
[..]
   REDIRECT AND LSNAT SUPPORT IN IPFW
     Redirect and LSNAT support follow closely the syntax used in natd(8).
     See Section EXAMPLES for some examples on how to do redirect and lsnat.
