    Since your question is a general DHCP client question, this list is the
    right place.

    From the man page for dhclient.conf:

      reject ip-address;

      The reject statement causes the DHCP client to reject offers from
      servers who use the specified address as a server identifier. This
      can be used to avoid being configured by rogue or misconfigured dhcp
      servers, although it should be a last resort - better to track down the
      bad DHCP server and fix it.

    Looks like that will do the trick.
