You probably want to use something like this, from "man ipfw":

      The typical use of dynamic rules is to keep a closed firewall configura-
      tion, but let the first TCP SYN packet from the inside network install a
      dynamic rule for the flow so that packets belonging to that session will
      be allowed through the firewall:

            ipfw add check-state
            ipfw add allow tcp from my-subnet to any setup keep-state
            ipfw add deny tcp from any to any

Going beyond these examples to a meaningful firewall configuration involves 
thinking about your security policy, considering roles and required services, 
etc....
