The easiest way to do this is with a firewall.  Set up a firewall on
your external interface that blocks all packets claiming to be from
your internal interface.  Your OS should have a tool to do this
(iptables on modern Linux).  It's also smart to do this at your
perimeter router; since lots of random things use IP addresses as
access control it's wise to stop anything fishy before it gets into
your building.
