Ad-Hoc Networking: MANET
n Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (manet) at IETF:
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/manet-charter.html
A "mobile ad hoc network" (MANET) is an autonomous system of
mobile routers (and associated hosts) connected by wireless links
routers are free to move randomly and organize themselves
arbitrarily; thus, the network's wireless topology may change
rapidly and unpredictably
n The primary focus of the working group is to develop and
evolve MANET routing specification(s) and introduce
them to the Internet Standards track. The goal is to support
networks scaling up to hundreds of routers.
