I have a router at a remote site with 5 ethernet ports.

There is a company that is a partner with our company that wants to put their router in the bulding.

They are going to NAT 6 of our addresses onto their network.

they asked for an ethernet port on our router.

Is this the best way to go as far as them connecting to us?

Would it be better to create a VLAN on the router?

But I am not sure what good it would do if they are going to be connected to the router, maybe an access list to limit what they can get to?
 
Why? Do they want to use your internet access? Do they want to communicate with your LAN?
