I'm not sure if this applies or not, but something that I just read made
me think about your question.
If you are wanting to prevent someone on your network from NATing
multiple IPs behind a router, say you are a provider for a building, you
might be able to stop them with this.
Set the TTL of packets passing back through your router to your clients
to 1. This will probably cause any internal router to drop packets
seeing a TTL exceeded.
I will not say any thing to the effect that this will have on things
like TraceRoute, other than it will probably have an effect.
Also, this would be fairly easy to get around on a capable router, say
Linux, in such as it would be easy to detect an inbound packet with a
TTL of 1 and set it higher.
