No, it should not start the firewall, service iptables start should start the firewall.

Sure, and it does, but is it a good design to make it easy to start the network up without the firewall?

My memory is probably faulty, but I'm pretty sure I remember starting the network in an older release and thinking, "Hey it started the firewall too--that's a nice touch."

I suppose it doesn't much matter: as long as there's nothing running to accept a network connection, nothing should be able to get in over the net. Just the same, having the firewall in place would be that much better.
