Abstract
Existing techniques for IP address autoconfiguration in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) do not address security issues. In this paper, we first describe some of the existing IP address autoconfiguration schemes, and discuss their security shortcomings. We then provide solutions to these security issues based on the use of trust models. A specific trust model is also proposed for use in improving the security of existing IP address autoconfiguration schemes.
