Abstract

P2P and MANET share many similarities. Deploying P2P application in MANET faces many difficulties, especially when security consideration is incorporated. In this paper we propose a cluster-based architecture combined with a group key management scheme for mobile ad hoc network. A network is divided into clusters and each cluster has a leader called clusterhead. In order to address the problem of service registration and discovery better, we also propose a simple multicast-tree algorithm which organizes all clusterheads into trees based on each source clusterhead. The feasibility of this concept was verified by simulation results.
