The most obvious solution that comes to mind would be to look up the host name and match the string "dynamic". or "static", this is more reliable than just guessing otherwise.
Regardless you would need to know C and utilize a network API such as this before you could do that: gethostbyaddr Function (Windows)

Thanks for your answer, is there different way? Because I suppose IP addresses's host names don't always contain one of "static" or "dynamic" words. I have just searched at http://whatismyipadd...com/ip-hostname, an IP's hostname was not contain one of these words.

Afaik, unless you are work on the computer itself or you have access to DHCP server that assigns the IP address for the computer's network, you could not get this information. However this is my impression from my experience in networking, I can be wrong since I never actually looked into this sort of issue.
