Wireless: Mobile nodes are connected wirelessly and hence no need of fixed infrastructure. Network can be set up within in less time and nodes share common media.
Ad-hoc-based: A mobile ad hoc network is created only for the particular purpose i.e. application specific. A temporary network formed with available mobile nodes, which are dynamic (arbitrary nodes). Autonomous and infrastructure less: MANET does not depend on any established infrastructure or centralized administration. Each node operates in distributed peer to- peer mode, acts as an independent router, and generates independent data.
Dynamic routing: No dedicated routers are necessary; every node acts as a router and forwards each other’s’ packets to enable information sharing between mobile hosts.
Mobility: Each node is free to move about while communicating with other nodes.
Decentralised network: A decentralised network is typically stronger than centralised networks.
Multi-hop fashion: due to the multi-hop fashion in which information is

The route path in the route table corresponds to a shortest path, calculated based on number of hops [6]. The idea of assigning a sequence number to destination routing loop problem can avoidable. The sequenced number selects the alternative routes for the same destination. To increase the DSDV protocol scalability CGSR [7] was proposed, which was designed with cluster concept. To improve the performance factor, CGSR proposed experimental methods like priority based scheduling, gateway code scheduling, and reserved paths. Practical problems of setting up a network in a highly dynamic environment were addressed in [8]. To maintain information regarding distance, cost of the link and routes, retransmission issues WRP is proposed, which uses a four tables each for the above mentioned cases
