Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are infrastructure-less wireless networks. These networks are easily deployable and are used during disaster recovery, emergency situation and in areas with poor infrastructure. Each node in the MANET has to be assigned with an IP address to start communication and receive services. These IP addresses are configured using Stateless Auto-configuration or Stateful
Auto-configuration. The Stateful Auto-configuration using a distributed dynamic server service is discussed in this paper. The current approach of server selection in Stateful Auto-configuration is based on factors like address buffer size, distance from the requesting node, link access to the node etc. The impacts of selfish nodes during the server selection are not addressed till now. Here in this paper we propose an algorithm using fuzzy sets to find the selfish nodes, which impose high threat to the performance of the MANET. The algorithm calculates the trust value of the nodes and thereby selects the servers which do not show selfish behaviors, and are with high trust value. The proposed technique has proven to improve the network throughput and, reduce the packet drops and network
response time.
