On the performance of group key management protocols in MANETs
نویسندگان
چکیده
The establishment of Group Key Management Protocols (GKMPs) is the most suitable solution to provide secure multicast communication within ad hoc networks. However, these protocols have to take into account the characteristics of a such environment, with mobility of nodes, wireless links and low capacities. The evaluation of these protocols becomes thus mandatory to guarantee their adequacy and their applicability within MANETs. In this paper, we present an evaluation method for group key management protocols within ad hoc networks based on NS2, illustrated by the evaluation and the comparison of four main existing GKMPs: GKMPAN, DMGSA, BALADE and Hi-GDH, which belong to different group key management protocols approaches.

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are receiving a significant interest and are becoming very popular in the world of wireless networks and telecommunication. MANETs consist of mobile nodes which can communicate with each other without any infrastructure or centralized administration. In MANETs, the movement of nodes is unpredictable and complex; thus making the routing of the packets challenging....

In mobile ad hoc networks, the absence ofinfrastructure and the consequent absence of authorizationfacilities impede the usual practice of establishing a practicalcriterion to distinguishing nodes as trusted and distrusted.Since all nodes in the MANETs would be used as router inmulti-hop applications, secure routing protocols have vital rulein the security of the network. So evaluating the perf...

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) have no fixed infrastructure, so all network operations such as routing and packet forwarding are done by the nodes themselves. However, almost all common existing routing protocols basically focus on performance measures regardless of security issues. Since these protocols consider all nodes to be trustworthy, they are prone to serious security threats. Wormhole...

-In this paper protocols for group key distribution are compared and evaluated from the point of view of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). A MANET is a collection of wireless mobile nodes, communicating among themselves over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any infrastructure such as base stations or access points. So the need to render those networks as autonomous and secure as poss...
