Abstract

The introduction of self-* properties has been proven to be a feasible approach for the management demands of Disruption-Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Among the properties of the self-* management vision, self-healing figures as a key property to improve the dependability of the managed infrastructures. An interesting possibility to materialize self-* support in disruption-tolerant management is through the employment of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology. In this paper, we introduce a P2P self-healing service tailored for disruption-tolerant management. We implemented the proposed service using ManP2P-ng, an open source P2P-based network management system. In addition, an experimental evaluation is performed considering as case study the disruption-tolerant management of a Host-based Intrusion Detection System (HIDS) deployed on a specific kind of DTN: Internet access networks for remote villages. The results show the feasibility of our proposal and its interesting features.
