Luo Zhong · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2006
This paper presents a new Kerberos assisted Authentication Mechanism in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks named KADH,KADH migrates a number of features from traditional,wired Kerberos environments to the Ad-hoc environment and provides secure extensions to support the more challenging demands of ad-hoc network.Due to the mobility and short range of the nodes,we introduce measures like replication,elections and optional check to ensure maximum connectivity of the clients with the servers and minimize the risk of malicious attacks from within the network.
