The same way.  Tell the FreeBSD box to use the FreeBSD firewall as the gateway 

In rc.conf, add the address of the gateway as follows:

defaultrouter="192.168.15.254"

or if you're more comfortable that way, use /stand/sysinstall (--> 
Post-install configuration --> networking --> interfaces, and add the address 
of the firewall as the IPv4 gateway)
