In this research paper, we describe an algorithm that could be implemented on an intrusion response system (IRS) designed specifically for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). Designed to supplement a MANET's hierarchical intrusion detection system (IDS), this IRS and its associated algorithm would be implemented on the root node operating in such an IRS, and would rely on the optimized link state routing protocol (OLSR) to determine facts about the topology of the network, and use that determination to facilitate responding to network intrusions and attacks. The algorithm operates in a query-response mode, where the IRS function of the IDS root node queries the implemented algorithm, and the algorithm returns its response, formatted as an unordered list of nodes satisfying the query.
