I agree that this kind of stuff is better arranged by real firewall
software.
But in Kannel we have connect-allow-ip c.s. right? So I don't see it is
contrary to Kannel philosophy.

I wouldn't recommend it. It is contrary to kannel philosophy (vis a vis

concerned about that level of security, already has a dedicated firewall 
installed.
