Actually standard packet filtering is supported by all Cisco products,
and most others as well.  Packet filters do not do state tracking.  The
packet filters you want will only work for TCP.  You need to block
everything else.

outbound on the interface to "the rest of the universe":
permit tcp <source> any
deny ip <source> any
... whatever other shit you want to permit to go out ...

inbound on the interface from "the rest of the universe":
permit tcp any <source> extablished
deny ip any <source>
... whatever other shit you want to permit to go in ...

Cisco (and others) have worked this way for about 40 years.

Be decisive.  Make a decision, right or wrong.  The road of life is
paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.
