  • According as computer is supplied in a lot of homes and offices and Internet use increases, various service based on the Internet. Including wireless PDA in the future, many devices such as Internet telephone, TV, refrigerator and oven will be connected on the Internet and Internet address exhaustion will be raised to serious problem gradually. Today, the IPv4 address exhaustion problem has been solved partially using NAT (Network Address Translation) however, the transition to next Generation Internet will be accelerated because of advantages such as mobility, security service, QoS, and abundant IP addresses. In IPv6, all hosts are designed to create and set their address automatically without manager's intervention using Neighbor Discovery Protocol. But, when an IPv6 host sets its address automatically, there are serious security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we analysis security vulnerabilities in auto-configuration and provide security requirements for secure auto-configuration.

  • MANET(mobile ad hoc network) cn be one of the access networks of BcN(broadband convergence network), and an user node requires address auto-configuration protocol for mu14i-hop environment. Some address auto-configuration protocols are proposed for independent MANET, but they don't consider BcN-accessable MANET environment. In this paper, new address auto-configuration protocol for wireless nodes is proposed. With this proposal, they ran configure their global addresses automatically in hybrid MANETs as BcN access networks. The autoconfiguration protocol modifies IPv6 NDP(neighbor discovery protocol) messages to deliver global prefix information to all wireless nodes, and avoids message boradcasting to minimize network overhead.

  • Address Auto-configuration capability is one of important advantages of IPv6 protocol This function enables the IPv6 hosts to configure IPv6 networks automatically, while IPv6 routers still have to be configured manually. To solve this problem, we propose RACP(Router Auto-Configuration Protocol), a new address auto-configuration protocol which configures all routers of a small network consisting of several routers and sub-networks automatically. The RACP protocol can automatically create and deliver IPv6 prefixes and routing informations of all routers on the network by using the network's prefix assigned by ISP. The proposed RACP can be used to set up network automatically for a small IPv6 site such as a small office network, a home network without the assistance of network administrator.

  • IPv6 is a new version of the Internet protocol, designed as the successor to IPv4. Among the changes from IPv4 to IPv6, we focused on the stateless address auto-configuration mechanism. The address auto-configuration mechanism is used by nodes in an IPv6 network to learn the local topology. The current specifications suggest that IPsec AH may be used to secure the mechanism, but there is no security association during address auto-configuration process because it has no initial IP address. As there are so many suity threats, SEND protocol was designed to counter these threats. In this paper we analyzed the security problems in NDP and SEND protocol. So we proposed the Modified NDP mechanism using PKC and AC in order to solve these problems.

  • Simulation analysis may be the essential means to either evaluate performance of systems or optimize system parameters for new design. Including many variations for design and implementation, MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork) is one target area of such an analysis. Since every node, however, included in the network has mobility, one MANET could be overlapped or merged with another one which use a different transport protocol. In order to communicate among nodes in this case, the new merged network should configure paths and addresses in advance. Configuring paths and addresses generates much overheads which ultimately cause delay in communicating data. Performance analysis is required to improve the data transport performance by minimizing overheads. This paper proposes a sound address auto-configuration method which is based on an on-demand manner and then presents modeling and performance analysis of the method. NS-2 simulation results verify that the proposed method can not only alleviate overheads, which are inevitably generated for address auto-configuration processes, and but also decentralize them in time.

  • Because of the limitations of traditional IPv4 address, the adoption of IPv6 has been accelerated. In IPv6 system, each host can obtain the IP address automatically using auto-configuration functionality, which is one of the features of IPv6. However, the auto-configuration functionality can allow a malicious user to get its IPv6 address and access the network without permission, the IP address management functionality becomes more important than IPv4. In this paper, we propose an IPv6 address management system based on IP agents, which protects the unauthorised users from accessing the network and redirects the web access of those users to a specific web page to induce them to access the network after installing the IP agents.

  • In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of IPv6 LAN. The legacy protocol for Internet is IPv4(IP version 4). The ability of IPv4 is not enough for modern real time multimedia communication services. So IPv6(IP version 6) protocol was suggested to resolve the problems of IPv4. We implemented IPv6 LAN using sTLA(sub Top Level Aggregation identifier) address and KOREN(KOrea Research and Experimental Network). Our IPv6 LAN is connected with 6TAP(Chicago), WIDE(Tokyo), and SingAREN(Singapore). We used a dedicated router, Windows 2000 PC host FreeBSD PC host, Solaris 7 workstation and Solaris 8 workstation for IPv6 NDP(Neighbor Discovery Protocol) protocol test. To support all data services including voice and video, IP protocol should be enhanced because the characteristics of modern network services are requiring QoS(Quality of Service) functions, auto-configuration, security, mobility and so on. So a new IP protocol, IPv6, has been developing to meet the requirements. In this paper, we introduce the implementation method and configuration information of IPv6 LAN.

  • IP header compression schemes offer a valuable measure for bandwidth preservation. Such schemes have been practically implemented in infrastructure-based IP networks for point-to-point links. However, minimal research and practical implementation efforts have been conducted in the direction of an IP header compression strategy that can meet the peculiar requirements of multi-hop ad hoc wireless networks. In this paper, we present a practically implemented multi-hop IP header compression scheme using the Robust Header Compression (ROHC) protocol suite. The scheme runs on a novel identifier (ID) based networking architecture, known as an ID-based ad hoc network (IDHOCNET). IDHOCNET additionally solves a number of bottlenecks of pure IP-based ad hoc networks that have emerged owing to IP address auto-configuration service, distributed naming and name resolution, and the role of an IP address as an identifier at the application layer. The proposed scheme was tested on a multi-hop test bed. The results show that the implemented scheme has better gain and requires only O (1) ROHC contexts.

  • Recently, a range of diverse networks are undergoing speedy evolution and inspiring variety applications. Among many networks, mobile Ad-Hoc networks (MANETs) are active working with a part of routing protocols. But, the majority of routing protocols have required a unique identifier, such as an IP address. At this while, IP address assignment scheme in MANET remains unsolved. When a centralized agent server is not exist, IP address is an critical issue such as a single MANET. This paper look over previous work about basic principles, also we suggest simple solution to overcome the power of two ($2^m$).
