Initial UE attach request should be plain NAS message. UE can be send integrity protected re-attach message. if integrity fails at MME, then MME will reject this attach. Now UE will send attach request as NAS plain message

Integrity protected NAS message during attach request?

UE is sending Integrity protected NAS message in attach request with IMSI to MME and the context is getting failed, while when UE is sending ATTACH request without integrity protected the attach is complete.

What should be the idle behavior of UE while requesting attach with IMSI?

PS: attach request with GUTI is also integrity protected but it is getting success...
