10.x.x.4 Wireless Router
10.x.x.5 Driver Station/Classmate
10.x.x.6 Development System

Last year a PC instead of the Classmate with an address of 10.x.x.6 could be used as a Dashboard display machine.

Sorry if there was any confusion.
Since the dashboard gets its packets from the driver station, the Driver Station application just sends the packets to localhost if configured for Local Dashboard. If configured for Remote Dashboard, the IP address is configurable.

Remember that FIRST is not allowing a dashboard on the same network anymore (new this year). As such, your competition ready setup will not ever have a machine at the 10.xx.yy.6 address. If you want to use a remote dashboard, you will need to use a USB to Ethernet interface and create a completely separate network for your classmate and your dashboard laptop (something like 192.168.1.z).
