Title : Loop Detection for MANET

We consider looping issue of a mobile ad hoc network (MANET).
Transient routing loops have been observed to form in Ad-hoc Networks
running the MANET routing protocol with Link Layer Notification
(LLN). Even when only a small quantity of the traffic may enter
these loops and only for brief time, the effect is to significantly
increase the impact on the surrounding network and its traffic thus
degrading end-to-end transmission. The use of MANET routing
protocols with LLN, together with loop detection and discarding of
looping packet to negate the detrimental effects on surrounding
traffic is found to improve performance significantly.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
