This paper focuses on message complexity performance analysis of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) address autoconfiguration protocols (AAPs) in reference to link errors generated by mobile wireless nodes. An enhancement was made using a proposed retransmission limit, S, to be computed for error recovery (based on the link error probability), to measure message complexity of AAPs in reference to the link error probability, $P_e$. The control procedures for the retransmission limit have been included for each of the AAPs. Retransmission limit control is critical for efficient energy consumption of MANET nodes operating on limited portable energy. O-notation has been applied to analyze the upper bound of the number of messages generated by a MANET group of nodes. The AAPs investigated in this paper are strong duplicate address detection (DAD), weak DAD with proactive routing protocol (WDP), weak DAD with on-demand routing protocol (WDO), and MANETConf. Each AAP reacts different to link errors, as each AAP has different operational procedures. The required number of broadcasting, unicasting, relaying, and received messages of the nodes participating in a single-node joining procedure is investigated to asymptotically calculate the message complexity of each AAP. Computer simulation was conducted and the results have been analyzed to verify the theoretical message complexity bounds derived. The message complexity of WDP was lowest, closely followed byWDO, based on the simulation results and analysis of the message complexity under nominal situations. The message complexity of MANETConf was higher than WDO, and strong DAD resulted to be most complex among the four AAPs.

The MANET(Mobile Ad Hoc Network) is an independent network that is oranized by only Mobile Hosts. MANET guarantees the mobility of the node and does not need a backbone network or a base station. Recently, there is a strong demand to connect MANET to the Internet. For the interconnection between MANET and Internet, Mobile hosts of MANET must have global IP address. The well known scheme of the address configuration for MANET is SAA(Stateless Address Autoconfiguration). SAA configurated IP address by node itself. The advantage of SAA is not requiring any server for address configuration. However the SAA has problems of unstable and inefficient interconnection on the AD Hoc Network. To solve this problem we propose a method that assigns an IPv6 Global address to the node through the Internet Gateway. The format of assigned IPv6 address is also defined. The simulation result demonstrates that the proposed method can support the host for fast getting of global IPv6 Address and Mobile IPv6 efficiently.

A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a group of independent mobile computing nodes that consist of a multi-hop wireless network without a central administration or any infrastructure. Every node that wants to join a MANET must obtain an address for communication. Having a centralized DHCP server that provides addresses to nodes, we can easily and automatically obtain addresses. However, a MANET lacks any fixed infrastructure such as a DHCP server. We therefore propose a distributed address autoconfiguration approach for a MANET using a reserved address and optimistic Duplicated Address Detection (DAD). The reserved address helps to reduce the allocation latency, and the optimistic DAD guarantees the uniqueness of addresses and lessens communication overhead. We then suggest methods of handling network partition and network merging situations, and go on to evaluate our approach through simulations. The simulation result shows that our scheme guarantees the uniqueness of allocated address and considerably improves allocation latency and communication overheads.

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.

In large-scale MANETs, the performance of MANET routing protocols is degraded significantly. To avoid this, zone-based hierarchical architecture is proposed. In this architecture, single large-scale MANET is divided into multiple small-scale MANETs. In this paper, we propose autoconfiguration-coupled MANET routing protocol to reduce routing overhead of mim user nodes. If MANET routing protocol utilizes the autoconfigured information of each user node, its overhead or procedure can be reduced. Proposed method shows the degradation of routing overhead of user nodes via simulation.

IPv4 의 주소 고갈 문제를 해결하고 더 개선된 서비스를 제공하기 위해 IPv6 가 개발되었다. IPv4 와 달리 IPv6 는 보안을 고려하며 설계되어 기본적으로 IPSec 를 제공한다. 하지만 IPv6 에도 보안상의 취약점이 있어서 여러 공격과 보안 문제에 노출되어 있다. 그 중에서도 프라이버시 침해 문제가 존재하는데, 이 문제는 IPv6 에서 제공하는 주소 자동 설정 방식(Stateless address autoconfiguration)에서 발생한다. 이 주소 자동 설정 방식은 주소 공간의 효율적인 관리를 위해 제안되었다. 주소 자동 설정 방식에서 프라이버시 침해 문제가 발생하는데, 개인 식별 프라이버시와 위치 프라이버시로 분류할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 프라이버시 위협과 그에 따른 해결 방안을 기술하고, 해결 방안에 따라 고려해야 할 사항들을 설명함으로써 프라이버시 침해 문제를 해결하는 데 도움을 주고자 한다.

This paper proposes a dual addressing scheme (DAS) for IPv6 over IEEE 802.15.4 wireless sensor networks (WSN). DAS combines a global unicast address to cope with association link changes and node mobility, and it links local addresses to lighten the overhead of the system to save energy and resources. This paper describes DAS address formats, address autoconfiguration, and address translation tables in the gateway. A detailed description of DAS is provided through examples. Simulations are performed to demonstrate the performance improvements of the DAS compared with the IPv6-based WSN, which uses the conventional single address.

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.

This paper focuses on message complexity performance analysis of MANET AAPs in reference to link errors generated by the mobile wireless nodes. To obtain the message complexity performance of AAPs in reference to the link error probability ($P_e$), an enhancement was made by proposing the retransmission limit (S) to be computed for error recovery (based on the link error probability), and then for each of the AAPs the control procedures for the retransmission limit have been properly included. The O-notation has been applied in analyzing the upper bound of the number of messages generated by a MANET group of N nodes. Based on a link error probability range of $P_e=0$ to 0.8, the AAPs investigated in this paper are Strong DAD, Weak DAD with proactive routing protocol (WDP), Weak DAD with on-demand routing protocol (WDO), and MANETconf. Based on the simulation results and analysis of the message complexity, for nominal situations, the message complexity of WDP was lowest, closely followed by WDO. The message complexity of MANETconf is higher than that of WDO, and Strong DAD results to be most complex among the four AAPs.
