Analytical Study of Local Repair Attack on RPL-Based 6LoWPAN Networks in Internet of Things

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

RPL was developed as a routing protocol in low-power and lossy network contexts to connect many applications using IP-based communication. However, RPL has been exploited to launch several attacks, including local repair attacks. we have evaluated the effect of the local repair attack on the network performance and compared it with the normal RPL. We have conducted simulations on different topologies that included grid and binary topology. The results obtained show that the local repair attack affects the performance of the RPL protocol. The drop in PDR has severely impacted the binary topology to reach only 82%. Moreover, the grid topology suffers from E2E delay, which increases by 50% to reach an average of 2.2 seconds. In addition, the grid topology consumes approximately 40% additional power when the network is under local repair attacks.
