“…From the Fig. 3, we observe that address allocation latency of our proposed protocol is almost the same as that of SHDACP [19]. However, as the number of nodes increase (300 nodes) SHDACP [19] performs slightly better than our proposed protocol.…”

“…In our proposed protocol, some of the nodes are forced to remain as normal nodes, if they receive negative acknowledgement message for their New Cluster message. Thus, for a fixed number of nodes, percentage of cluster head nodes in our proposed protocol is less than that of the SHDACP [19] protocol.…”

“…In these protocols, a node generally creates a random address and then performs duplicate address detection (DAD) to avoid duplicacy of the IP address. Some of these protocols are IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconf (SAA) [11], Weak DAD [12], IPv6 autoconfiguration for large scale MANETs [13], Address Reservation and Optimistic Duplicated Address Detection (AROD) [14], Automatic IP address autoconfiguration (AIPAC) [15], Agent based Passive Autoconf (APAC) [17], ND++ an extended IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol [18], Scalable Hierarchical Distributive Autoconfiguration Protocol (SHDACP) [19]. The third category is hybrid autoconfiguration protocol which is a combination of the above two types and is designed to improve the reliability as well as the scalability of autoconfiguration protocols.…”

“…As shown in Fig 2, if the number of nodes are relatively low (200 nodes), then our proposed protocol generates slightly more overhead than the existing SHDACP [19] protocol because there are more unconfigured nodes in the network and they keep on transmitting Neighbor Query messages.…”

In mobile adhoc networks (MANETs), one of the fundamental issues is to perform the address autoconfiguration for the incoming nodes, as no centralized server exists in MANETs to manage this configuration process. Every node needs to be given a unique IP address so that the new node can communicate with the already existing nodes in the network. The nodes in the MANET are free to move randomly, so that the configuration protocol should be able to manage the configuration of nodes according to their mobility. Furthermore, due to mobility of the nodes, network may sometimes split into different parts and at times different networks may also merge. Therefore, the methods of address assignment used in fixed infrastructure networks are not directly applicable to MANETs. The design of an autoconfiguration protocol in MANETs should be robust enough to handle the network partitions and network mergers. In this paper, we have proposed a Hierarchical Distributive Auto Configuration Protocol that automatically configures a network using IPv4 address space. The proposed protocol is then compared with the existing protocols on the basis of different metrics such as communication overhead, address allocation latency, percentage of configured nodes and percentage of cluster head nodes using OMNET++ simulator.
