One of the most groundbreaking concepts in wireless networking is the mobile ad hoc network (MANET). It is an ever-shifting network of wireless nodes that may be adaptively and indiscriminately positioned, with the interconnections between nodes constantly changing. Defense networks, in particular, are becoming more prominent, and it is the goal and passion of technology to update and improve its components. There is a significant rise in transmission costs due to the high energy usage. Routing

Ingenious Grey Wolf Optimization-based Routing Protocol (IGWORP) is proposed in this paper to discover the most efficient path to a destination and reduce the amount of delay and energy spent. IGWORP mirrors the natural tendencies of the grey wolf towards foraging for its prey. IGWORP looks for a global route rather than assembling many local routes. Encircling and hunting characteristics of wolves are used in IGWORP to discover and utilize the route for data transmission. Standard network metrics are used in NS3 to evaluate IGWORP's performance. The findings of IGWORP demonstrate that it reduces delays and energy consumption better than the current routing methods.
