Abstract
A major threat in wireless local area infrastructure network is denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. It makes the resources unavailable for its anticipated user which can be accomplished through spoofing legitimate client/AP’s medium access control (MAC) address. Less protection in MAC address led to get easy spoofing. Since the management frame is unencrypted, adversary sends the management frame to the victim using spoofed MAC address. This prerequisite goaded to offer an effective prevention mechanism for DoS attack. Even though several preventing mechanisms are available, no one provides complete solution in preventing MAC layer DoS attack. This paper proposes a theoretical framework of threshold value (ThreV) algorithm, which is based on setting up ThreV for the management frame, to effectively address this issue.
