摘要:The wireless nature of such networks allows users to access network resources from nearly anyconvenient location within their primary networking environment. Registered users can connect tothe network from anywhere a router or another connected user is available without being identifiedor tracked. The onion routing network Tor is undoubtedly the most widely employed technology foranonymous web access which also gives good security for anonymous transmission of data. Wirelessmesh network (WMN) is a new wireless networking paradigm. Unlike traditional wireless networks,WMNs do not rely on any fixed infrastructure. Instead, hosts rely on each other to keep the networkconnected. Wireless internet service provider is choosing WMNs to offer Internet connectivity, as itallows a fast, easy and inexpensive network deployment. One main challenge in design of thesenetworks is their vulnerability to security attacks. In this paper, we investigate the principal securityissues for WMNs. We study the security goals to be achieved. We identify the new challenges andopportunities posed by this new networking environment and explore approaches to secure its datacommunication
