That's a good idea, but that logic has to be on the switch. Unless one has a very simple network, the firewall is somewhere else.

WiFi networks already have to have substantial smarts in the router. Adding firewall logic to that wouldn't take much. On simple networks it's typically the same device already.

VLANs can be used to achieve this goal with a non-trivial network too.
