The Mobile Ad hoc Network is a modern wireless base communication system is most important and popularly used communication. The Major attack faced by this network is sinkhole attack which can heavily attract the resources available in the network. It has to be prevented to make the energy of the network is available for all resources. Different kinds of attack that can be introduced in wireless network. So security is an essential requirement in mobile ad hoc network (MANETs). There are various type of attacks that can be introduced in wireless network. In this paper we studies sinkhole attack and different routing protocol. Sinkhole attack is a type of attack were compromised node tries to attract network traffic by advertise its fake routing update. One of the impacts of sinkhole attack is that, it can be used to launch other attacks like selective forwarding attack, acknowledge spoofing attack and drops or altered routing information.
