    摘要: The present invention relates to a mobility management control node (111, 113) of a mobile communications network (100) and to a method in the mobility management control node (111, 113). According to the method a 5 gateway (105, 106, 117) is allocated to a bearer (110, 118). The method comprises determining an appropriate gateway for the bearer (110, 118) and obtaining load information indicating a current load of the determined appropriate gateway. If the load information indicates that the current load of the determined appropriate gateway is above a predetermined threshold 10 value of the determined appropriate gateway, a gateway out of the determined appropriate gateway and at least one other gateway is selected based on information associated with the bearer. On the other hand, if the load information indicates that the current load of the determined appropriate gateway is below or at the predetermined threshold value, the determined 15 appropriate gateway is selected. The selected gateway is allocated to the bearer (110, 118).
