Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc network is a temporary network of mobile nodes where mobile nodes communicate with each other through wireless links with no fixed infrastructure & no centralized control. Each mobile node in such a scenario acts as both a router & host. Nodes within each other's radio range communicate directly, while those other nodes that are far apart used as relays. Thus the nodes find a path to the destination node using routing protocols. Minimal configuration & quick deployment make them suitable for emergency situations like war, emergency medical situations etc. Since Mobile Ad-hoc networks lack an infrastructure, they are exposed to a lot of vulnerabilities. In this paper, we present a survey on the protocol stack based security vulnerabilities in MANETs. All these vulnerabilities attempt to affect the overall performance and throughput of the network. The intent of this paper is to classify and explain the security vulnerabilities in the MANET protocol stack.
