Nowadays, communication world is growing rapidly. To communicate, occurrence of nodes are mandatory. Nodes must be those in which capability of sending as well as receiving messages should be there. These nodes may need to behave as sender or receiver, depending upon situation. Sometimes, any node participating in such communication may need to act as intermediate node. It actually means that intermediate node will receive packet that was created by sender node and forward this packet to destination node. This process is actually done as per nature of network. As already shared, communication applications are growing in fast rate. People are looking for different possibilities of communication especially wireless communication. Today’s generation want to have existence of communication possibilities at all the places. This, actually, requirement motivated to the creation of wireless network so that as per need at all maximum places network should be made available and nodes should be capable to communicate. For such reasons, Adhoc network development come into reality. MANET is an example of such category of network in which mobile nodes are allowed to be there and these nodes will establish their own network for message sharing. It means that nodes must be capable to participate in communication with proper synchronization among other nodes, otherwise it will always lead to possibility of loosing data. For the same, these nodes need to have support of routing protocol.
