Oops!!!
Been working too much, lately.
Sorry for overlooking this section and posting some noise.

Yes and no: it uses both, i.e. "ipfw nat 2 config if re0 ip 192.168.0.1".
However, later only the interface is listed from the show command; i.e.:

> # ipfw nat 2 show config
> ipfw nat 2 config if re0

Guess I'll have to use the "ip", not "if" then.
