  Abstract

We introduce two distributed IP address auto-configuration mechanisms for mobile ad hoc networks. RADA (Random ADdress Allocation) is based on random IP address selection, while LiA (Linear Address Allocation) assigns new addresses sequentially, using the current maximum IP address. An improved version of LiA, known as LiACR (Linear Address Allocation with Collision Resolution) further reduces the control overhead. Simulation results show that, when many nodes join a network during a short period, RADA assigns addresses more quickly than LiA and LiACR. However, RADA uses the address space less efficiently, due to its random allocation of IP addresses. Hence, RADA is particularly useful in battlefield scenarios or rescue operations where fast setup is needed, while LiA and LiACR are more suitable for ad hoc networks that are moderate, confined and subject to some form of governance control, such as that orchestrated by a wireless service provider.
