Abstract

A Mobile ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a self organized network of wireless devices suited for applications that require on the fly communications. Mobile Nodes (MNs) in the MANET employ multi-hop relaying techniques to exchange messages. These MNs are not globally reachable by nodes in the Internet. Integrating Mobile IP version 6 (MIPv6) protocol with MANETs opens the gates for providing Internet connectivity to the MNs. Securing the integrated MANET and MIPv6 architecture is challenging. In this paper, we propose and describe a secure multi-hop MIPv6 registration scheme in the MANET-MIPv6 integrated architecture. The proposed scheme offers a secure multi-hop MIPv6 registration.
