The problem is that the roboRIO itself doesn't connect to the FMS, and it can't know whether or not to be a DHCP server until after it is already talking to the Driver Station.
I can't think of a reliable way to have a DHCP server decide to be active only when the FMS is not present. There are too many chances for it to be running before the DS has made the FMS connection. My preference would be for a separate physical device in the Ethernet tether between DS and robot bridge.
