ABSTRACT:
An address allocation method using site-local prefix pools including (MANETs) generating link-local addresses by a plurality of nodes participating in a mobile ad-hoc network, and performing Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) to guarantee the uniqueness of the link-local addresses; electing a leader node of the plural nodes which notifies of a site-local prefix of the network; deciding whether networks adjacent to the network exist; generating a site-local prefix pool including plural site-local prefixes at random by the leader node if the neighboring networks do not exist; selecting one site-local prefix from the site-local prefix pool, and allocating a site-local prefix to the network; and notifying of the site-local prefix allocated by the leader node in order for each of the plural nodes to generate a site-local address. Accordingly, a site-local prefix pool is used to allocate duplication-free site-local prefixes to two or more MANETs, and as a result, duplication-free site-local addresses are allocated to nodes.
