I have the AirPort Extreme and I do not know what numbers to put for the:
Public UDP Ports:
Public TCP Ports:
Private UDP Ports:
Private TCP Ports:
OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
It is impossible for NAT to open port in "both directions TCP & UDP". You have to use port worward
inside LAN -> NAT -> out side Internat
inside LAN <- Port dorward -< out side Internet
The best case is to switch from NAT to ROUTER mode like this diagram
And you have that
It is nearly impossible to get type 1 NAT.. for that you have to pass the public IP to the PS4.
Please read the info so you understand.

It says..
NAT Type 1 (Open) – You are either NOT behind a router/firewall OR you have already DMZ enabled.
To NOT be behind a router.. means you are plugged directly into the internet.
OR you have DMZ which means ALL ports are open.
For most people you have
NAT Type 2 (Moderate) –Your PS3/PS4 is connected properly and you shouldn’t run into any issues.
That means all the required ports are open.. the list is there .. on the playstation reference.
You need to open up the following ports in both directions TCP & UDP:
This still only gives you type 2 NAT.
So to answer your title question literally.
How do I change the NAT Type from Type 2 to Type 1 for the PS4 using the Apple AirPort Extreme?
Plug your broadband modem directly into your PS4.
You will not achieve Type 1 NAT through any NAT router.
You can put the PS4 in what is the equivalent of DMZ in the Airport.
On the Network tab put the PS4 as the default host. Where I have 192.168.2.253 put the IP of the PS4 there.

PS3/4 Type 1 NAT (Apple Routers)
Just also let me add.. opening ports and using DMZ are mutually exclusive..
Do not attempt to do both.
The idea of DMZ is that one host on the network receives all incoming requests..on all ports.. that is fairly dangerous if the OS of the PS4 proves to have a weakness.
