usually DHCP snooping ensures that an untrusted link cannot be the source of DHCP address allocations. the feature that stops clients doing things unless they got an address via DHCP is usually IP source guard (which relies on their address being present int he table smaintined by the DHCP snooping) - along with Dynamic ARP inspection (DAI) which also uses the DHCP snooping tables to check if the client address matches what its ARPing - no more poisoning clients with fake gateway details.
