only thing I would know to do at L2 is port security... just lock it down to pre-identified MACs to prevent users from throwing unauthorized boxes on the network.

[7:73489] Dear All, We have configured DHCP server at the CORE switch and this will assign the ip address to the client located at edge switch. PC---edge switch-----GE uplink---CORE---DHCP server (The network is pure Layer 2 network) But we are afraid that some end users will place their own DHCP server at the edge switch so it will interrupt the normal ip address assignment. Any method to block the unauthorized DCHP server? TIA.
