eNodeB selects an available MME to serve the UE, based typically on network topology and the location of the UE within the network, so that the best MME is selected, e.g. to reduce the probability that the MME is changed.

What is SRB1 and SRB2 in LTE?

SRB1 used to transfer RRC messages which use DCCH channel. • SRB2 used to transfer RRC messages which use DCCH channel and encapsulates a NAS message. SRB1 is also used to encapsulate NAS message if SRB2 has not been configured. SRB2 has lower priority then SRB1 and it is always configured after security activation.
