I'm not sure I understand your setup or what you mean by a local IP, but 
you can specify the IP address that  Frontier as a third parameter when 
port forwarding, like this;

	userland.portforward(80,8080,"192.168.10.9")

There's more information on OS X  and Frontier here:

And especially in the Setting Up Frontier section of this:

HTH!
