Did some quick googling as I had to step a user through this, original source below.
H1-dhcp server. H1 has a mac address: mac1. Dhcp server has following entry: 199.199.199.1- mac1. Let say host h1 is a rogue host. Using an application, h1 sends another dhcp discover message again using the same mac address mac1. Ethernet must somehow be configured on the Mac. I believe the factory configuration is to set it up for DHCP, and that's fine; when it doesn't find a DHCP server, it will just default to a “private” address. If you want to check, open System Preferences and click on the “Network” pane. Renew your IP address from the DHCP server on Mac. If you receive your IP address using DHCP, you can force your computer to renew your current IP address. In some cases, renewing the IP address resolves connection issues. You might need to do this periodically in an environment where many computers use the same DHCP server or the network. DHCP port number for server is 67 and for the client is 68. It is a Client server protocol which uses UDP services. IP address is assigned from a pool of addresses. In DHCP, the client and the server exchange mainly 4 DHCP messages in order to make a connection, also called DORA process, but there are 8 DHCP messages in the process.

Click on the Apple, select System Preferences then Network, and begin:
2 Steps total
Step 1: Choose Network
Most commonly, Wifi or Ethernet, but choose the one you are configuring now, will actually have the name of the Wifi Network (MyCompany, SuchandSuchAirport etc)
The location you wish to configure should appear in the Network pane's Location pop-up menu.
In the list of network interfaces displayed along the left side of the Network pane, select the interface you wish to configure.
Step 2: Go Advanced
Click the Advanced... button near the lower-right corner of the display of basic configuration items. This displays a sheet with advanced configuration items for the selected interface, organized under a series of tabs.
Click the TCP/IP tab. Configure TCP/IP as follows:
In the Configure IPv4 pop-up menu, select Using DHCP.
Make sure the DHCP Client ID field is entirely empty. It should not contain even spaces.
In the Configure IPv6 pop-up menu, select Off if that choice appears. Otherwise, select Link-local only.
Click the DNS tab. Configure DNS as follows:
Make sure that the DNS Servers list is empty or contains only IP addresses that are in greyed-out type. (Addresses that are greyed-out are ones the device has learned via non-manual configuration, such as DHCP or BootP. These are fine.) If any IP address appears in this list in normal type (not greyed-out), remove that IP address by selecting it and then clicking the - (minus) button below the list.
Make sure that the Search Domains list is empty or contains only DNS domains that are in greyed-out type. (DNS domains that are greyed-out are ones the device has learned via non-manual configuration, such as DHCP or BootP. These are fine.) If any DNS domain appears in this list in normal type (not greyed-out), remove that DNS domain by selecting it and then clicking the - (minus) button below the list.
Save, Apply, Confirm, whatever the option is.. I don't have a Mac here to play with.
