DHCP isn't the tool you'ld use for providing this sort of functionality. Unless you have a very peculiar setup, chances are the acronym you need is NAT. Read this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/natd.html which should clarify things for you. There have been plenty of articles on this and other FreeBSD mailing lists on this topic which should help you. Knowing the right terminology should make searching the 'net for relevant material much easier too.
