From what we saw at the demo (We're not a beta team) the Ethernet hardware is quite capable of networking to another system (co-prossessor). I did not see any DHCP controller software (Greg ... is the cRIO under VxWorks capable of being a DHCP server?) so the addressing may be in the FPGA (in which you wont be able to use the ethernet port for further networking).

I know a DHCP server isn't running, and I don't think one is on the controller that simply needs to be enabled. The enet expandability depends directly on whether or not a switch, hub, or other enet expansion device will be allowed. Currently there are two ports, one for radio, and the other used by the camera, if you use it.
For future years, another expansion bus is CAN.
