Well any IP address outside of their subnet would essentially be unroutable.
If you're not using RFC1918 space anywhere, set it to 10.0.0.1 or
something - this is generally ignored by other networks' border routers
(such as the ISP).

You still need to be able to deny an ARP lookup for that MAC that would
allow it to resolve to another IP.  Is there no provision in routed or ipfw
to filter by MAC address?
