The 4 digit prefix of an IRM (known as an IRM network identifier) is allocated by IFAST that attempts to facilitate international roaming by minimizing conflicts with North American MIN codes that are based on the national 10 digit phone number.

When the phone is turned on, it listens for a signal. If it receives a signal, it looks at the SID carried by the signal, and compares it with the one that is stored in the phone. Originally, in analog systems, the mobile would turn on the roaming indicator if the SID was not the single value stored in the phone.
The HLR will send to the VLR a MAP PRN (Provide Roaming Number) message to obtain the MSRN of the roaming cell phone. Like that the HLR will be able to route the call to the correct MSC. With the IMSI contained in the MAP PRN message, the VLR assigns a temporary number known as the mobile station roaming number (MSRN) to the roaming cell phone.
