This paper describes a zone networking architecture based on zone masters for enabling wireless nodes to communicate with each other through intermediate nodes. Especially, we focus on the design of scalable routing protocol for deploying relatively large and densely populated Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET). In MANET, scalability is one of the most difficult challenges. Moreover, the communication over MANET only relies on mutual and cooperative routing functionalities of nodes without any specific relaying devices such as router or base station. To overcome such challenges, we propose to use the zone master which is a supplementary device having high computing and battery power. A zone master gathers routing information and distributes it to nodes within his zone so that the nodes can discover and maintain a route in an efficient manner. We also show that the control overhead of the proposed approach is lower than those of previously proposed protocols.
