As it becomes increasingly important that Internet access is available anywhere at any time, providing MANET (Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) with the Internet access attracts more attention. The existing DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) address configuration schemes require message exchanges between MANET nodes and the DHCP server through multi-hop routes. Messages can be easily dropped in the wireless multi-hop communication environment and the address configuration may be instable and need long delay. In this paper, we propose a new address configuration scheme using the concept of address pool allocation. In the proposed scheme, the DHCP server assigns a part of its address pool to a node instead of a single address and the node can assign a part of its own address pool to its neighbor nodes. Through simulation studies, we show that our scheme yields about 77% of the address configuration delay and 61% of the control message overhead of the existing DHCP based mechanism.

In an IP-based network, automated dynamic assignment of IP addresses is preferable. In most wired networks, a node relies on a centralized server by using dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) to obtain a dynamic IP address. However, the DHCP­based approach cannot be employed in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) due to the uncertainty of any centralized DHCP server. That is, a MANET may become partitioned due to host mobility. Therefore, there is no guarantee to access a DHCP server. A general approach to address this issue is to allow a mobile host to pick a tentative address randomly, and then use duplicate address resolution (DAR) protocol to resolve any duplicate addresses. In this paper, an innovative distributed dynamic host configuration protocol designed to configure nodes in MANET is presented. The proposed protocol not only can detect the duplicate address, but also can resolve the problem caused by duplicate address. It shows that the proposed protocol works correctly and is more universal than earlier approaches. An enhanced version of DAR scheme is also proposed in this paper to solve the situation of duplicate MAC address. The new and innovative approach proposed in this paper can make the nodes in MANET provide services to other networks and avoid packets from being delivered to incorrect destinations.

DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which dynamically allocates an IP address and/or host configuration parameters to a host. The DHCP client's address can be changed dynamically any time. For the possible communication with other system, the DHCP client has to inform its address to the DNS system with dynamic update facility. But the DNS dynamic update has a problem related to the security. So we proposed the efficient mechanism for the secure integration of DHCP and DNS by using DNS security extensions. The system also uses the DNS server as the certificate repository for the storing & retrieval of each other's certificate.

DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for efficiency and convenience of the IP address management. DHCP automatically assigns an IP address and configuration information needed to run the TCP/IP communication to individual host in the network. However, existing DHCP is vulnerable for network attack such as DHCP spoofing, release attack because there is no mutual authentication systems between server and client. To solve this problem, we have designed a new DHCP protocol supporting the following features: First, ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman) is used to create session key and ECDSA(Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) is used for mutual authentication between server and client. Also this protocol ensures integrity of message by adding a HMAC(Hash-based Message Authentication Code) on the message. And replay attacks can be prevented by using a Nonce. As a result, The receiver can prevent the network attack by discarding the received message from unauthorized host.

DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)is a protocol which dynamically allocates an IP address and/or host configuration parameters to a host. But because this protocol uses broadcasting for message exchange, it causes heavy traffic and overload on the network. By avoiding unnecessary broadcasting and using a simple and efficient implementation model, we can reduce such heavy traffic and overload. We have studied on characteristics of the broadcasting the traffic caused by DHCP, and implement the model which can reduce traffic by improving algorithm and unicasting messages.

Recently, Telecommunication companies have introduced a new network architecture that assigns network resources consistent and protects their systems more secure. Now, they provide multimedia services through various types of access networks. In this study, I'd like to introduce IP address assignment method based on the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and find out how success or failure of Ip address assignment will be taken place according to the booting order of xDSL modem, AP and PC.

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.

A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) supports a multi-hop wireless network without any prepared base station (BS). The MANET is capable of building a mobile network automatically without any help from DHCP servers for address allocation or routers to forward or route messages. Many routing protocols have been proposed for the MANET, but these specify the most optimized or shortest path from a source to a destination, and they assume that nodes are pre-configured before communication. To make up for this, address allocation algorithms, such as MANETConf [1] and prophet address allocation algorithm [2], have been proposed. Especially, MANETConf proposes address allocation algorithm with duplication address check. In this paper, we present a dynamic node configuration protocol based on 2-tierd hierarchical network architecture for mobile ad-hoc network, modified from [1]. Especially, it reduces the number of broadcast message exchange between nodes when a new node somes into a network, which lessens network overhead, remarkably. This protocol is based on two-tired structure, and it ensures address allocation with simple duplication address defection mechanism.

Ad-hoc 망은 인터넷과는 다른 독립적인 망을 구성하는 경우 사용되게 된다. 이러한 Ad-hoc의 특정 호스트가 인터넷 망과의 연결을 시도하는 경우, 이 호스트로의 패킷의 라우팅을 위해서는 모든 경로상의 라우터에서 이 호스트에 대한 정보의 엔트리가 추가되어야만 한다. 이는 망 구현 과정에서 확장성 (Scalability) 문제를 야기하게 된다. 즉, 라우팅 테이블 엔트리의 증가로 차지하는 라우터의 메모리 문제나, 해당 호스트의 정보를 찾고자 할 때의 소요시간으로 적용하기 어렵다. 이러한 확장성 문제를 제거하는 방법으로 자동으로 주소를 설정 하는 방식인 DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)에 대해서 알아 보았다. 그리고. DHCP의 문제점인 기존의 라우팅 정보를 손실되는 문제가 있어 적용하기 어렵다. 이에 본 논문은 확장성 문제를 제거하는 동시에 엑세스 포인트(access point)에서 NAT(Network Address Translation) 기술을 적용하여 AODV(Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) 라우팅 프로토롤과 인터넷의 연동을 위한 메커니즘을 제안한다.

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 ($2^m$).
