If you are running a DHCP server on a network and have a block of IP
addresses which you make available, how can you stop a (reasonably)
knowledgeable luser from explicitly grabbing an address from that block
by explicitly configuring their box with that address, thus preventing
that IP address from being recorded in the leases, and hence you not
immediately knowing that that box has been attached to the network.
