Stupid question - creating a public interface on my core switch

I need to create a routing interface with a public IP for a backup ISP we have. My core switch is an HP5406zl running on newer firmware. This sounds horrific, but I'm asking in case my thinking is off. Should I create this routing interface on my core switch or should I get a small router to go between my core and this ISP? This will be passing traffic to a Cisco CUBE, so it won't really be doing any sort of traffic filtering.
