I do not think there is another way to work at low level without writing
rules by yourself. The more you write, the more you understand.
This is not my job, and I am far from being an expert, but I should say,
 distibuted rules among multiple systems, is not that simple ; it
depends on your needs. Can a script for a router be useful for a server
? It can be complicated to get a script working on both systems.

Maybe I am mistaken, but this is my point of view.
