Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a prominent technology in the wireless network in which the mobile nodes operate in a distributed manner and collaborate with each other in order to provide the multi-hop communication between the source and the destination node. Generally, the main assumption considered in the MANET is that each node is a trusted node. However, in a real scenario, there are some unreliable nodes which misbehave and launch the attack in network like black-hole in which the misbehaving nodes attract all the traffic towards itself by giving false information of having a shortest path towards the destination with a very high destination sequence number. In this paper, we discussed different possible nature of the nodes in the network that can lead to the different possible attacks. We have also presented the different classification of the techniques and discussed the merits, drawbacks, and suitability of the various techniques in different scenarios which need to be taken into consideration while designing an efficient protocol.
