I've been to the "big dance" and didn't shutdown unused ports either time.
If the instructions don't state in some way to do that then don't. You are
only graded on the requirements so while it's not wrong to shut them down,
it's not right either so don't waste your time. Save the time for other
things where you'll need it.
