Review of Autoconfiguration for MANETs
نویسندگان
چکیده
A MANET is a temporary multi-hop wireless network composed of mobile nodes without an underlying infrastructure. The mobile nodes in a MANET are not connected to an access point to access the Internet (although in some special cases a MANET and the Internet may co-exist). Instead, their wireless network interface cards operate in ad-hoc mode. The nodes that are within the transmission range of each other can communicate directly. For the nodes that are out of the range, they have to resort to the nodes in between to relay the messages.

Improving IP Address Autoconfiguration Security in MANETs Using Trust Modelling
Existing techniques for IP address autoconfiguration in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) do not address security issues. In this paper, we first describe some of the existing IP address autoconfiguration schemes, and discuss their security shortcomings. We then provide solutions to these security issues based on the use of trust models. A specific trust model is also proposed for use in improvin...
متن کاملA DHCP-based IP Address Autoconfiguration for MANETs
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are expected to become more and more important in the upcoming years, playing a significant role in 4G networks. In order to enable the deployment of IP services in such networks, IP address autoconfiguration mechanisms are required. Although the ad hoc topic has been a very intense research area, with a plethora of published papers about routing, there is a lack...
متن کاملA Review of Addressing Protocols in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks
A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a self organizing, multi-hop wireless network without infrastructure. Most of the research in the area of MANETs focuses on routing protocols. Although routing protocols assume unique node addresses, the question of how to assign them remains open. Addressing is a tough task in MANETs because of its node mobility and lack of infrastructure. An address autoconf...
متن کاملSecure and Robust IPV6 Autoconfiguration Protocol For Mobile Adhoc Networks Under Strong Adversarial Model
Automatic IP address assignment in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) enables nodes to obtain routable addresses without any infrastructure. Different protocols have been developed throughout the last years to achieve this service. However, research primarily focused on correctness, efficiency and scalability; much less attention has been given to the security issues. The lack of security in the d...
متن کاملName-Based Autoconfiguration for Mobile Ad hoc Networks
Addressing configuration is a necessary step to facilitate communications among hosts (or nodes), and a naming service allows users to conveniently use applications such as telnet, ftp, email, http, SIP, and file sharing. However, administration of these hosts becomes difficult as the number of hosts grows in a network region. This is especially the case for ubiquitous networks based on mobile ...
متن کاملDemand-Driven Clustering in MANETs
Many clustering protocols for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have been proposed in the literature. With only one exception so far [1], all these protocols are proactive, thus wasting bandwidth when their function is not currently needed. To reduce the signalling traffic load, reactive clustering may be employed. We have developed a clustering protocol named “OnDemand Group Mobility-Based Clust...
