Thank you Stefan,
Instead of adding 'allow-dhcp' filter, can I white list 2 mac addresses,
the gateway and the dhcp server?

<rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='500'>
    <mac match='no' dstmacaddr='$GATEWAY_MAC'/>
</rule>
<rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='500'>
    <mac match='no' dstmacaddr='$DHCP_MAC'/>
</rule>
