[srsran-users] Problem connecting srsENB and srsEPC

Hi,

in the |enb.conf|, the |mme_addr| points to localhost:

|##################################################################### # 
srsENB configuration file 
##################################################################### 
##################################################################### # 
eNB configuration # ... # mme_addr: IP address of MME for S1 connection 
... 
##################################################################### 
[enb] ... mme_addr = 127.0.0.20 ... |

Also in the |epc.conf|, the MME listens on the loopback device:

|##################################################################### 
#                   srsEPC configuration file 
##################################################################### 
##################################################################### # 
MME configuration # ... # mme_bind_addr:    IP bind addr to listen for 
eNB S1-MME connections ... # 
##################################################################### 
[mme] ... mme_bind_addr = 127.0.0.20 ... |

Since you run those applications on different machines, please set those 
values to the IP address of the network interface of the EPC through 
which the eNB can contact the EPC. For example, if your local network is 
192.168.0.0/24, the eNB has 192.168.0.10 and the EPC has 192.168.0.20, 
please set both, |mme_addr| and |mme_bind_addr|, to 192.168.0.20

Best regards,
Robert
