If they are not going to use VPN, then no the client is not required.
They will continue just as before

Chris,

Thanks for the quick response. No, they're not using VPN at present.
Only accessing via https://domainname.com/remote through a browser
while off-site. The Cisco VPN client I plan on using is version 5. If
the ports are forwarded as you suggest (and as is the present
Netgear's firewall), do they even need to use a VPN client? That is
where I'm confused.

Regards,

Buck
