Forum Topics : Development / Static/Dynamic IP database
Is there any tools or databases out there that can be used to determine if a specified IP is dynamic or static? I am already successfully using the ip-to-coutnry database and would like to differentiate between dynamic and static Ips. I need to use this for security reasons but there could be other usefull applications.
For example: A dynamic ip has low bandwidth and can be loaded a less graphic intense interface than the broadband static ips.
I was trying to figure out how to do this and the only other way that i can think of is to ping the Ip continuously every hour or so for 2-7 days (length of period is arbitrary) and if it keeps responding it is most likely static. This is much less prefered as opposed to a database that has the ranges already specified and the values for static/dynamic set.
All comments, thoughts, and/or info is welcome.
