A MANET is a type of ad-hoc network that can change locations and configure itself on the fly. Because MANETs are mobile, they use wireless connections to connect to various networks. This can be standard Wi- Fi connections, or another medium, such as a cellular or satellite transmission. A Mobile Sensor Network (MSN) is a collection of mobilize attached sensor nodes. The relation between WSN and MSN is that when WSN is that when WSN nodes are moving they are known as MSN. Routing is a basic step for data exchange in MSN. It becomes essential to design a secure network as it finds applications in different fields where data and communication are important like that in defense areas and disaster rescue operations. The black hole attack is one of the security risks. In this attack, a malicious node falsely advertise or impersonates itself as a valid route for destination and once source selects it as a route, it starts dropping the data packets instead of forwarding. In this work, Zone Based Energy Efficient Routing Protocol (ZEEP) is one of the protocols which are the modification form of one of the most prominent routing algorithm, ad- hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing, for the MANETs. In this black hole attack in AODV and ZEEP protocols using network simulator and have tried to find that the effect of Black Hole Attack is less effect in ZEEP protocol. Simulations are carried out in the MATLAB and the efficiency of the network in terms of throughput and Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End- to- End and Energy Consumption are measured. In this research, I will identify or survey related work done by the various authors in past regarding prevention of the black hole attack in the network.
