Don't know what policies the various vendors follow.  In the DLink 502T 
that I got from MTNL, on the WAN port, all services were turned ON in 
the original firmware.  In the second rev. their developers woke up and 
turned the services OFF.

It is better to be safe than sorry - takes a few mins. longer in the 
setup.
