| Summary: | Because of the nature of wireless channels, Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs) are vulnerable against many threats and attacks. Beside of this, the mobility of the network nodes made the security of routing protocols one of the most interesting research areas over Ad-Hoc networks. Moreover, Rushing attack became one of the common attacks against routing protocols in MANETs. Although there are many researches over Rushing attacks, the security research community suffers from a famine of evidence to present the exact position of this kind of attacks in MANETs clearly. Therefore, we paid particular attention to this issue to clarify the position of Rushing attacks against routing protocols and the functionality of this category of attacks. We hope that our document be useful for other researchers in understanding mentioned issue in face with this class of attacks. |
