摘要:lack of infrastructure in ad hoc networks makes their deployment easier. Each node in an ad hoc network can route data using a routing protocol, which decreases the level of security. Ad hoc networks are exposed to several attacks such as the blackhole attack. In this article, a study has been made on the impact of the attack on the hybrid routing protocol ZRP (Zone Routing Protocol). In this attack a malicious node is placed between two or more nodes in order to drop data. The trick of the attack is simple, the malicious node declares to have the most reliable way to the destination so that the wife destination chooses this path. In this study, NS2 is used to assess the impact of the attack on ZRP. Two metrics measure, namely the packet delivered ratio and end to end delay.
