Overview:

Internetworking the Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) with the Internet has been a hot issue for many years. However, most researches have been concentrated on the use of MANETs as the access networks for the Internet. This paper introduces another use of MANETs: backup or load-balancing transit networks for the Internet. Although the MANETs capacity is currently low compared with other backbone technologies, this paper argues that MANETs is a suitable alternative for backup or load-balancing transit networks of the Internet based on its self-organized infrastructure-less multi-hop architecture and its increasing capacity in the near future. To provide the backup or load-balancing transit services for the Internet, a scalable, stable, lowoverhead, QoS-support ad-hoc routing architecture with the address auto-configuration is required.
