Abstract: In order to ensure the celerity and security in mobile client switching process of wireless Mesh networks, the fast login authentication and fast handover authentication scheme based on Diffie-Hellman algorithms were proposed. In login authentication process, the Mesh client is authenticated successfully with 4 rounds of message exchange by predistribution of tickets, followed by calculating their shared handover key and delivering it to any of its neighbor. With the shared key, the handover authentication process takes a 3-message handshake to accomplish mutual authentication when clients move to a new router. During the process, the authentication server does not need to be involved. The analysis of the scheme security show that the proposed schemes have less communication and computation overhead, lower authentication latency and higher authentication efficiency. And it is secure if the user is considered trustworthy.

Key words: Diffie-Hellman algorithms, security, Mesh network, efficiency
