The goal of this paper is to show the differences between ad hoc networks and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The paper will show the routing in ad hoc networks and compare it to that of MANETs, after providing a brief introduction to MANETs. In addition, the types of routing protocols will be described as proactive and reactive protocols, where proactive routing attempts to maintain optimal routes to all destinations at all times, whether it is needed or not. In contrast, reactive protocols determine routes to given destinations only when there is data to be sent to those destinations. The paper will also provide a summary comparing uni-path and multi-path routing, by considering different parameters. Multi-path routing often has advantages more than uni-path routing, and Multi-path routing can also result in packet reordering. However, with uni-path routing, traffic allocation is not an issue since only one route is used.

Several types of Routing Protocols for mobile ad hoc networks have been proposed recently for their application in various areas such as military, government and many other fields. In this paper, we have proposed a comparative study of various routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks particularly emphasizing on its security aspect. Furthermore, we have discussed the comparison among existing routing protocols for MANET. Main factor for comparison is routing methodologies and knowledge required to make routing decisions. The comparison is made on the basis of the following factors: integrity, confidentiality, authentication, nonrepudiation and availability. Analysis of the secured version of proposed routing method has been done on the basis of the five security requirements and the same has been shown in the comparison tables.
