Abstract:
A network element selection method and a network element selector are provided. The network element selection method includes: receiving, by a network element selector, a request message sent by a base station, where the request message includes information about user equipment UE and a service chain head, the service chain head includes a session index, and the session index is empty or the session index is allocated by a first controller serving the UE; determining, by the network element selector based on the session index, a controller providing a service; and sending, by the network element selector, the request message to the controller providing the service, so that the controller providing the service serves the UE. In this application, the network element selector is deployed to provide a load balance function.

Claim (Index 9):
The network element selector according to  claim 8 , wherein when determining the controller providing the service based on the session index and attribute information of each controller, the processor is configured to:\n identify that the session index is empty; obtain the location information and the load capacity information of each controller; obtain location information of the base station; and determine a distance between the base station and each controller based on the location information of the base station and the location information of each controller, and determine, based on the distance between the base station and each controller and the load capacity information, the controller providing the service.
