There is no firewall configured by default in Debian.

The configuration between a typical "server" and a typical "client" 
system (desktop, laptop) is different enough to make it very difficult 
to come up with a useful default configuration.

Besides, one can also run services on a client system or use a server as 
client system, etc.
