The cRIO's ethernet port #2 is not on the same physical network as port #1. Unless you turn the cRIO into a TCP/IP router using software you find or build yourself, something on port #2 will not respond to a ping, or accept browser connections, from something on port #1.

This is normal.

After you have configured, tested, and otherwise played with the camera by connecting it directly to a computer, you should simply connect it to the cRIO (using the orange crossover cable) and use the FRC Vision VIs to initialize and read images from it. A Dashboard program running on a computer with IP address 10.x.y.6 (on the same network as the Driver Station) can provide you with a real-time picture from the camera if you want one.
