PF is in the base system and pretty easy to configure for setups like
the one you describe -

Assuming your local net is NATed with unroutable addresses on the LAN,
the traffic is directed to a routable address but the computer you
want to receive the traffic is on a nonroutable address inside, some
basic redirection (rdr) should do the trick.

I'm a bit interested in why you should be looking for a different and
probably more difficult way to do it.  Are there any specific things
in your setup which would break with PF?
