Question: What is the primary purpose of the M3 Configuration Function in E-UTRAN?
Option 1: To manage UE (User Equipment) mobility between different eNodeBs.
Option 2: To exchange node configuration information (e.g., supported MBMS Service Area) between MCE and MME for M3 interface operation.
Option 3: To establish and manage bearers for dedicated EPS (Evolved Packet System) services.
Option 4: To handle authentication and security procedures for UE access.
Explanation: The M3 Configuration Function is designed to facilitate the exchange of necessary configuration information between the Mobility Management Entity (MME) and the Multi-Cell/Multicast Coordination Entity (MCE), ensuring proper operation of the M3 interface, particularly for features like MBMS which relies on defined service areas.
