From the Leases tab, select the client(s), which are authorized to take ip address from Mikrotik router (in future) and then click Make Static:

Move to the DHCP tab and double-click on the DHCP Server and select the static-only from Address Pool drop down menu:

After that, only authorized client(s) will get ip address from Mikrotik. If you want that new client get an ip address from Mikrotik, then you can select the dhcp_pool1 from Address Pool drop down menu. After that Mikrotik will assign an ip address to new client, make this ip address to static (as described above) and select static-only again in order to disallow ip address assignment to unknown client(s).
