Abstract

This paper includes a new proposal for the generation of certificates repositories in MANETs. The described process is based on the combination of the self-organized key management model together with the MultiPoint Relay (MPR) technique, generally used in the Optimized Link State Routing protocol. The main objective is to reduce the cost of generating and updating local certificate repositories by selecting those certificates that allow to reach the maximum number of nodes. This goal is just achieved by applying low-cost operations carried out locally by the nodes themselves.
