Study of Various IP Auto-configuration Techniques
Jagrati Nagdiya, Shweta Yadav · 2013
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are without a fixed infrastructure. All nodes have self organizing capabilities. One of the most important issues is the set of IP addresses that are assigned to the ad-hoc network. IP addressing and address auto-configuration have attracted much attention in MANETs. Some papers have proposed solutions to provide an auto-configuration of nodes. But they do not absolutely support security aspects in auto-configuration techniques. Thus, security is also a main issue in address allocation. In this paper we are proposing a model for secure IP- auto-configuration using public key cryptography.
