question about wan lan ports on edge/vpn routers

I am not sure what to do because I need the firewall in gateway mode but this one router is confusing me.  It doesn't help when I think about the other vpn router they have for backing up another router.

I asked the person responsible for managing a Cisco VPN Router if he would have any problems with just having his LAN interface connected to my switch with the XG firewall doing a NAT rule with no cable plugged into the WAN interface of his router because its going to screw up my routing table.

His response was...

For the VPN router the WAN interface must be connected. The External interface 0/1 must connect to the internet so we can build the IPsec tunnels, the Internal connection 0/0 must connect to your LAN so my vendor can access the hosts.

I am waiting for a response to have the hosts defined the host but can cisco routers function connected to the lan only.  Seems like some acl should work on their end.
