Abstract
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is an error
reporting and diagnostic utility and it is considered as a part of
Internet Protocol (IP) suite. Although this protocol is very
important for ensuring correct data distribution, it can be exploited
by malicious users for conducting different Denial of Service (DoS)
attacks. Due to the broadcast nature of wireless communication,
exploitation of this kind of attack is even easier. By sending bogus
ICMP redirect packets, a malicious user can either disrupt or
intercept communication from a wireless access point.
In this paper, we present our approach to simulate the ICMP
Ping Flood Attack, and to analyze the effects of this attack on
wireless networks using OPNET Modeler. We propose several
countermeasures against this type of attack. Simulation results
regarding the effects of link failure recovery mechanism against this
type of attack are discussed.
