Mesh Networking is based on routing techniques originally developed for battlefield communications. By pushing intelligence decision making to the edge of network, high performance and scalable networks can be built at very low cost. Mesh networking play an important role in the wireless community. It promises self-healing, multi-hop networking capability that lowers node costs and power consumption, and increase reliability in a realworld noisy environment. The problem of selective routing path in wireless mesh networks, in these paths, the adversary is active only for a short period of time, selectively targeting messages of high importance. Thereby the advantages of selective routes in terms of network performance degradation and adversary effort by presenting two case studies; a selective path on TCP and one on routing. The selective routing can be launched by performing realtime packet classification at the physical layer. To mitigate from the attacks, there are three schemes that prevent real-time packet classification by combining ECC cryptographic primitives with physical layer attributes. Thus here the security and evaluation of computational and communication overhead is analyzed.
