Abstract

AODV is a reactive MANET routing protocol that does not support security of routing messages. SAODV is an extension of the AODV routing protocol that is designed to fulfil security features of the routing messages. In this paper, we study the performance of both AODV and SAODV routing protocols under the presence of blackhole, grayhole, selfish and flooding attacks. We conclude that the performance of SAODV is better than AODV in the presence of blackhole, grayhole and selfish attacks while its performance is worse than AODV in the presence of flooding attack. The blackhole and flooding attacks have a severe impact on the AODV and SAODV performance while the grayhole and selfish attacks have less significant effect on it.
