Abstract

A wireless mesh network is a kind of multi-hop network and can be used as synonym for an ad-hoc network. It is a network having many to many connections with the capability of dynamically healing the network topology. Security is a challenging application of a wireless mesh network. The self configurable self organized nature makes a wireless mesh network more vulnerable to various types of attacks. Exploitation of a WMN can cause a large scale degradation of network performance. In this paper we have discussed some attacks that are performed on various layers of TCP/IP model. And we performed a comparative study for a specific network layer attack: grey hole attack. A grey hole attack is often difficult to detect and recover. There are different techniques for its detection which have their advantages and shortcomings. We have discussed some of them in this paper.
