Abstract: MANET stands for "Mobile Ad Hoc Network." Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an independent mobile node device that is linked via wireless connections. Every node not only acts as an end system but also as a packet forwarding router. The nodes are free to move and combine into a network. Such nodes frequently change location. A MANET is a kind of ad hoc network capable of swapping positions and configuring itself on the move. Because MANETS are mobile, special routing algorithms are needed to accommodate the changing topology by using wireless connections to connect to different networks. There is no single protocol that fits perfectly with all the networks. The protocols must be selected on the basis of network features, such as distance, scale and node stability. Work on mobile ad hoc networks is still underway, and work will contribute to even improved protocols, and will likely face new challenges. The paper's main goal is to find out about the security issues and their countermeasures implemented on the Network Layer.
