Firstly, make sure you're running a system version that includes ipfw2
support.  You need to be running either 5-CURRENT or a recent version
of 4-STABLE.  If you're running 5-CURRENT then you've already got
ipfw2 and don't need to do anything more, but you'll probably be more
comfortable running 4-STABLE.

So, assuming you're all set up to rebuild the world and the kernel,
you need to:

Add 'IPFW2=TRUE' to /etc/make.conf

Add 'options  IPFW2' to your kernel configuration.

Then simply build and install a new system in the usual way
(ie. according to the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING) and away you
go.

Cheers,

Matthew

 Could anyone explain or direct me to any procedures for 
 upgrading to ipfw2?

Assuming you already have options IPFW in your kernel,
your world, kernel and sources are synced, and that you run i386:
Lines may be broken:

echo options IPFW2  /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYKERN
cd /usr/src/sbin/ipfw  make -DIPFW2 all  make -DIPFW2 install
cd /usr/src/lib/libalias  make -DIPFW2 all  make -DIPFW2 install
cd /usr/src  make kernel KERCONF=MYKERN

reboot.
