Multicast is a one to group communication. The applications of multicast are broadcasting stock quotes, videoconferencing, and software distribution. The deployment of efficient and secure communication mechanism is hindered because of the lack of security. There are various schemes such as simple hash scheme, hash tree scheme, and hash tree signature scheme. But these existing approaches also suffer from communication overhead and computation overhead. To solve the major problem of security concern is solved with support of source authentication mechanism. The purpose of our work is to evaluate the performance of multicast source authentication. The objectives of the proposed work are to reduce the communication overhead and computation cost of multicast communication system. The proposed work is implemented in QualNet 5.1.2. |
