I only do static IP assignments on the VMs. I have no idea how you'd
stop a VM from running a DHCP server from outside the VM (not that I
can imagine why anyone would want to do that anyways). The best
answer I've found for a lot of shennanigans is a zero tolerance
policy in the terms of service (do it and you're gone, period).
 From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHCP: "DHCP uses the same two ports assigned
by IANA for BOOTP: 67/udp for sending data to the server, and 68/udp for data
to the client."

You could simply filter packets on port 67/udp towards the VM, so it doesn't
see the requests, and on port 68/udp from the VM, so it's not able to reply.

If that was the case, woudn't my idea of using:

work?
