Yes.

The reason you were not routing packets previously:  With
IPFWDING_KERNEL=FILTER_ON, the scripts only enable packet forwarding once
the firewall filter rules are fully configured...with IPFILTER_SWITCH=none,
you're not running a firewall filter, so the scripts take the (safe) option
of not forwarding any traffic, rather than assuming you bungled the config
and routing packets anyway (never a safe assumption for a security device).
