Actually, I was wrong when I told that no work had been done on
this. It's not specific to version 3, but the upcoming 5.8 release
does have support for source address filtering for packets. I'd
forgotten about some patches submitted to the project which addded
this functionality.

       sourceFilterType none|whitelist|blacklist
              specifies whether or not addresses added with sourceFilterAddress
              are whitelisted or  blacklisted.  The default is none, indicating
              that incoming packets will not be checked agains the filter list.

       sourceFilterAddress ADDRESS
              specifies  an  address  to  be added to the source address filter
              list.  sourceFilterType configuration determines whether or not
              addresses are whitelisted or blacklisted.
