Name resolution in on-demand MANETs and over external IP networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Common user applications cannot run in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) before a method for name resolution is in place. While the Domain Name System (DNS) works well on the fixed Internet, it represents a centralized approach to name resolution, which is not suitable for MANETs. This article refines the framework developed for name resolution in MANETs and shows how a mechanism for local name resolution can be implemented transparently to the application. It also proposes methods to align local name resolution on the MANET with DNS over external IP networks, forming one integrated method for name resolution. Finally, different strategies for how to store name-to-address mappings on MANETs are discussed.

Comparative Performance Analysis of AODV,DSR, TORA and OLSR Routing Protocols in MANET Using OPNET
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....

This paper deals with design goals to provide seamless connection to the Internet when mobile hosts roam between MANETs and to achieve load-balancing routing when mobile hosts have multiple gateways available. We address three issues in this paper namely IP address resolution, mobility management under NAT structure, and load-balancing routing. Mobile IP and NAT traversal are adopted to provide...

Discovery of services and other named resources is expected to be a crucial feature for the usability of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). In this paper, we propose a mechanism for simple service discovery that reuses name resolvers and name server software used for name resolution. To enhance service availability, one may introduce service coordinators, which store information about services re...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are multi-hop wireless networks of mobile nodes constructed dynamically without the use of any fixed network infrastructure. Due to inherent characteristics of these networks, malicious nodes can easily disrupt the routing process. A traditional approach to detect such malicious network activities is to build a profile of the normal network traffic, and then iden...

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provide an attractive solution for networking in the situations where network infrastructure or service subscription is not available. Its usage can further be extended by enabling communications with external networks such as Internet or cellular networks through gateways. However, data access applications in MANETs suffer from dynamic network connections and re...
