So that only seems to work on systmed based systems in case, given the
.timer unit.  Embedded platforms, such as OpenWRT, don't use systemd in
any case.

I probably don't have enough context to properly understand that.

But honestly, looking at the syntax you are pointing me to, so many
references to interfaces in rules and whatnot, this does not look like
much of an abstraction over netfilter/iptables/nft/etc.

Shorewall offered that abstraction, allowing me to relate interfaces to
zones and then deal with rules in terms of zones.

But again, I might need a more wholistic look at foomuuri to more fully
understand it.

But then again, the lack of ease of use or even just policy deployment
on low-powered, embedded systems (i.e. shorewall remote-reload …) might
preclude foomuuuri in any case.

Cheers,
b.
