Any home routers with IOT control granularity ?

Are there any home routers in the market that have the ability to control IOT device isolation with granularity?
What I mean is providing different levels of isolation to different IOT devices. For example an iRobot ROOMBA needs limited internet access and some interactions with iPhones. The ports/services are well documented. The rest should be blocked.
An ESP32 gadget may just act as a WEB server to a few iPhones, and may be access to NTP internet pool. The rest should be blocked.

It seems to me that this is a critical area that is in need of easy configuration, without the need to become a network admin messing with IPTABLES , EBTABLES...
 
No such animal, best of my knowledge. It's left up to you to develop it. Analysis, coding, project management, long hours, crowdfunding, & so forth.

It is nuts! The percentage of users that may have the skills or the awareness, interest and smarts to get the minimal skills to take care of the problem has to be fractions of %. I do not understand why vendors don't move in this space.

Do you know of any open source efforts that are alive?
