Hi
You cannot deny a client to set a static IP address on the client machine,
except when you have control over the client machine.
You can allow access with pf or ipfw only for the DHCP address range you
give out to clients and for static addresses you may have configured
yourself on some network devices that need access. If your firewall defaults
to deny (default) all other IP addresses are denied, otherwise deny those
addresses.
