Offboard video processing plus video stream to Driver Station

[slibert]

The 2013 FMS Whitepaper indicates that port 1180 is available for bidirectional communication between driver station and robot.

We are using offboard video processing (via netbook on the robot), and also need to get a video stream to the driver station smart dashboard.

Our thinking is to have the netbook communication with the camera (over HTTP) and then re-serve the video (over port 1180) to the driver station.

Clearly, port 1180 is open for use. However, I'm concerned that the field network configuration will only allow port 1180 *to/from the robot's IP address* (10.xx.yy.2).

Our netbook has a separate IP address from that of the robot.

Does anyone know whether port 1180 traffic between smart dashboard and a robot-onboard netbook (connected to the robot's wifi access point) is allowed - even though the netbook's IP is not that of the robot?
