A Survey on Preventing DSR Protocol against Black Hole Attack for MANET
Rahul Patel, Maitrey Patel · 2015
Now a day, Ad-hoc network has become an indivisible part for communication for mobile devices. A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a network topology without the use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. A black hole attack is a severe attack that can be easily employed against data routing in MANETs. A black hole is a malicious node that can falsely Reply for any route requests without having an active route to a specified destination and drops all the receiving data Packets. The Black hole attack is that where a malicious node advertises itself as it is having the optimal route to the destination. This paper discusses some of the techniques put forwarded by researchers to detect and prevent Black hole attack in MANET using DSR protocol.
