Abstract

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) is an integral broadband wireless network who provides high bandwidth internet service to users. It is kind of multi-hop networks having many to many connections with the capability of dynamic sanify network topology. WMN’s utility network performance can cause a massive fall. Channel your physical security vulnerabilities, due to the dynamic changes of topology is a major challenging issue. Self –Configuration is a wireless mesh network self-organized nature make it vulnerable to various type of more attacks .In this paper we have discussed Some attacks that TCP / IP model are performed at different layers of security challenges, analyzing the counter remedies and protection mechanisms in place various attacks listed. Some attacks that TCP / IP model, are performed at different layers of security challenges, analyzing the counter remedies and protection mechanisms in place various attacks listed.
