Abstract

This paper is intended to find an efficient way to support secure and scalable routing mechanism well suited for Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Support of secure routing protocol is prerequisite for launching a secure communication in the presence of adversaries. To do this, we first propose a zone networking architecture based on zone masters that allow ordinary nodes to discover a feasible route to the destination in a scalable manner. On the basis of the architecture, secure routing protocol is given. Moreover, we also propose to use short-lived key(s) to overcome the performance degradation caused by applying expensive digital signature to our scheme.

This research is supported by the ubiquitous Autonomic Computing and Network Project, the Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) 21st Century Frontier R&D Program in Korea.
