I didn't search. In my world of systems engineering words like "will" and "shall" are requirements. The document that I linked to has "will"s spread throughout it, and in my ingrained mind I viewed those as requirements on the system. Why would I search when the requirements were so clear?

What would make this information easier for you to find?
Was this sarcastic?

The answer is pretty simple. Put a link to it on the roboRIO networking page, along with some words along the lines of "Static IPs are also acceptable for more information see (insert link here)." I would think that all things roboRIO networking should be in or linked from the page named "roboRIO Networking". That's documentation 101.
