Secure on-demand distance vector routing in ad hoc networks
Panos Papadimitratos, Zygmunt J. Haas · 2006
We address the problem of securing route discovery in mobile ad hoc networks, proposing a lightweight, yet robust, routing protocol, the distance-vector secure routing protocol (DV-SRP). DV-SRP discovers on-demand multiple routes, which are established across the network, without explicitly providing network connectivity. DV-SRP combines the advantages of the type of route discovery first introduced by AODV, with security and, thus, resilience to adversaries that disrupt route discovery. Compared to previous proposals in the literature to secure the AODV-like route discovery, DV-SRP is either more robust, or more efficient, or more general
