How do you prevent users from setting static IPs in linux?

Asked by linuxgnuru (207points) January 18th, 2011

I have a dhcp server that assigns IPs based on MAC addresses so I can control how many client computers are on the net; but this doesn’t stop people from setting their own IP. Is there a way to stop this? Maybe dynamically set firewall rules to block ips unless they’ve been assigned by the dhcpd? I haven’t a clue and google has failed me.
