This depends on "what type of rules" if they are publish and subscribe rules
to determine source and destination as you describe below and you promote
the properties for the total set they will ever want in advance (which will
be the tricky thing to figure out; or maybe there is just a static set) then
you can provide a simple UI that sits on top of the explorerOM and
programmatically modify/create send/receive ports subscriptions on demand in
a manner you describe below.
If it were business logic rules I'd suggest the rules engine but its routing
rules.
