Boeing has an NCSC evaluated router that performs source and destination
IP-address/TCP-port filtering.

This is an out-of-the-box NCSC evaluated A1 router (beyond B1 and B2 to A1).
A1 means formally verified correctness and high-assurance of no flaws that
can be exploited to by-pass the intented functionality.  It also means high
confidence of no flaws that can inadvertently compromise the intended purpose.
This provides orders of magnitude increase in confidence over other router 
products on the market.  

We have added an email (SMTP) application-gateway to this product and can 
take it through NCSC RAMP (rating maintenance) at A1 if there is a good
business case for doing so.
