A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network allows distributed decision making by letting every node to take part in a routing decision. In this decision making the trust can play an important role. Establishing a trust among nodes is considered to be an influential tool to protect the wireless network. The nodes in the network can communicate with each other by building an acceptable level of trust relationships among themselves. But the trust management schemes themselves can be vulnerable to attacks. Trust Propagation and trust management in order to establish a trust, update a trust and revocation the trust is more challenging in a resource constrained MANET as compared to other traditional communication networks due to the dynamic topology change, mobility, conditions of propagation channels. In MANET, a malicious node can cause significant data damage and adversely influence the quality of the data. Thus, trust level analysis of a device can impact the certainty with which a device conducts data exchange with other device. The uncertainty and incompleteness of the trust evidence can be derived due to the dynamic characteristics of MANET. This paper is intended to pioneer the benefits of trust in MANET, investigate the various trust management schemes developed for MANET putting forward the summary of these techniques and the vulnerabilities associated with the trust management. The paper highlights the potential attacks and their impact on trust management in MANET.
