ETSI EN 303 645 Provision 5.6-1: Unused network and network-reachable logical interfaces disabled

Network interfaces that are not used, and logical interfaces not used but reachable over a network, are switched off by default before the device reaches the public; if a user may enable one, the enabling itself is protected by access control and authentication. Status in Table B.1: M F (p) (mandatory, a shall provision; applies only where unused network or network-reachable logical interfaces exist).
