The Simulation and Comparison of Routing Attacks on DSR Protocol
Jiwen Cai, Ping Yi, Ye Tian, Yongka Zhou, Ning Liu · 2009
This paper focuses on mobile ad hoc network's routing vulnerability and compares network performance under several attacks. First of all, we put forward an enhanced type of black hole based on current research. Secondly, we implement this attack on DSR protocol, using network simulator 2, and another two attack patterns-passive black hole and RREQ flooding attack for comparison. Finally, the authors evaluate these attack patterns' impact and draw the conclusion that flooding attack is more dangerous than black hole attacks and active black hole bring about larger damage.
