Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks are used for data transfer. The nodes of such
networks do not require presetting. They are characterized by dynamic
data transfer during their movement of the nodes. MANET could be
targeted by potential security breaches. Bl
ack hole attack is one of the
serious attacks targeting wireless AD_HOC networks through a false
point whichcan absorb data and send them to another place or neglect
them. This is due to the lack of central control node which is able to
manage communications. This research investigates the effects of the
black hole on the performance of hybrid routing protocol Temporally
Ordered Routing Algorithm (TORA) and proactive routing protocol
Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) for a variable number of mobile
nodes in different speeds in a high load environment.
