Abstract  The Internet Protocol (IP) is the source of Interne t transmission but an inadequate authentication tec hnique paves a  way for IP  spoofing. Since, IP spoofing initiates m ore attacks in the network, a  secure authentication  technique is required to  defend against spoofing attacks. In order to achiev e this, in this paper, we p ropose a (SVT)  for defending IP spoofing attacks.  Our technique authenticates IP address of each Auto nomous System (AS) using Neighbour Authentication ( NA) algorithm. The  algorithm  works  by  validating  NA  table  NA  construct ed  by  each  node.  The  NA  table  is  transmitted  securely  using  RC-6  encryption  algorithm.  In  addition  to  encryption,  ou r  technique  use  arithmetic  coding  to  compress  and  d ecompress  the  NA  table.  The  performance  of  our  technique  is  proved  t hrough  simulation  results.  Our  technique  incurs  low  overhead  and  significantly improves the performance of network.
