A Survey on the Secure Routing Protocols in MANETs

Ashwini S.N, P. Mangayarkarasi

Because of the characteristics, like dynamic network topology, limited bandwidth, and limited battery power, routing in a MANET becomes a challenging task compared to other conventional networks. Therefore research is targeting on development of efficient routing mechanisms. Many efficient routing protocols have been proposed for MANET, whose concept is based on the co-operation of each and every node that constitutes the network. The presence of misbehaving nodes, will lead to the vulnerabilities in the form of various kinds of attacks. This paper illustrates all the protocols for safe and secure routing in mobile ad-hoc networks. The objective is to know about various types of protocols which take different parameter as their prime consideration. But every protocol has the main aim of finding out the feasible path to route the packets providing security to the data being transmitted.
