In the first step, the exploit and first stage payload is sent to the target machine. After exploitation, the stager binds itself to the target with a specific task and tries to connect back to the attacking msfconsole and a proper communication channel is set up. Now the stager loads the DLL. msfconsole and sends the second stage DLL injection payload. After successful injection, MSF sends the meterpreter DLL to establish a proper communication channel. Lastly, meterpreter loads extensions such as stdapi and priv. All these extensions are loaded over TLS/1.0 using a TLV protocol. Meterpreter uses encrypted communication with the target user that is another major advantage of using it. Let us quickly summarize the advantages of meterpreter over specific payloads:

It works in context with the exploited process, so it doesn't create a new process

It can migrate easily among processes

It resides completely in the memory, so it writes nothing on disk

It uses encrypted communications

It uses a channelized communication system, so that we can work with several channels at a time

It provides a platform to write extensions quickly and easily
