Different Routing Threats and its Mitigations Schemes for Mobile ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) ?A Review

ABSTRACT MANET is a special wireless network without any fixed infrastructure and It has dynamic topology. Security in routing is a one of the big problem in mobile ad-hoc network because of its open nature, infrastructure and less property. So Mobile ad-hoc network needs some secure routing protocol to archive the network data path secure. Secure routing in MANETs is one of the challenging task, designing a new security mechanism for mobile ad-hoc networks, Routing protocol must aware about different type of attacks as well as the characteristics of the attacks that could be launched against the ad-hoc networks, mitigation schemes. In this paper we have presented the different attacks in MANET and their proposed solutions.
