The website is showing my correct internal LAN IP address.
https://www.whatismyip.com/
It does not work in Safari.
I do not suspect this is an XKCD #628 attack. How is this website implementing this?

This is because of WebRTC feature.WebRTC feature will leak your IP address even if you are behind a proxy server or using a VPN service.

This is my setup
I'm trying to SSH into a diferent subnet on my local net, I can SSH from PC 2 to PC 1 but not the other way around. router has DHCP enabled.
You need to configure a firewall rule on the router to allow the ingress traffic. I suggest you configure port forwarding. You can follow this link[1] for a detailed guide.

I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard using a D-Link router. I want to Configure it using Static IP Addresses.
Try to turn off the firewall and ping to test the response.
If that does work, then re-enable the firewall and allow ping.

I am using prometheus to graph stats on my server. The problem is that that annybody can access the graphs from http://my.Ip.Adress:port/index.html. How can i password protect this access? alternatively: possible to password protect the port?
Prometheus doesn't have any built-in authentication or authorisation (there's just too many possible configurations), however you can use a reverse proxy to achieve this.
http://www.robustperception.io/adding-basic-auth-to-prometheus-with-nginx/ describes one way to do it.

Question on a review:
If a packet is mistakenly routed in a closed loop among a number of machines, it could theoretically loop in the network forever. How does IP ensure that this cannot happen for Internet Packets?
There is such thing as TTL. You should perform basic internet search before posting a question.

Sorry for the language mistakes I've made. I don't have static IP to be accessible from outside world so I want to run a dead simple http server on my dynamic IP which I get from DHCP of my local provider. How can I make it?
I use Ubuntu and similar with nginx. I tried something like this:
~path/to/index.html$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 80 #of course nothing
Yes you can,
But you must use a proxy like:
DYN DNS
NO-IP
etc.
These sites gives you a link static IP and forwards it to your dynamic IP address.
The IP provider needs to be updated with your current IP.
This is done either via a service on your computer, or via your router (if it supports Dynamic DNS it).
The conclusion is that your current IP address must somehow be connected to a DNS (like www.something.org).
