Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc networks are proposed because there are some areas where it is not possible to set up a network having fixedinfrastructure, like in areas of emergency services, military operations, personal area networks, etc. Ad hoc network allowscommunication between wireless nodes with the help of their transmission ranges and routing protocols facilitate thiscommunication among the nodes. But on these routing protocols variety of attacks are possible like- Eavesdropping, IP-spoofing, Blackhole, Denial of service attack, etc. By attacking the routing protocol attackers can access network traffic, can drop it or canmodify it. To prevent these attacks many secure routing protocols like- SEAD, ARAN, SAODV, SRP, etc have been developed. Inthis paper security aspects of ARAN (Authenticated Routing for Adhoc Network routing protocol) has been analyzed with respectto a commonly used routing protocol AODV (Adhoc On-Demand Distance Vector) i.e. how much these two protocols are resistantto Blackhole and IP-Spoofing attack under GloMoSim-2.03 simulator.
