Your iPhone SE should show your NAI as your cell number and the VZIMS.com domain. The NAI is the Network Advertising Initiative - here's their website: NAI: Network Advertising Initiative


The MSID is the Mobile Station Identification. The phone has an MDN (Mobile Device Number) which will be your cell phone number, and the MSID, which is the access number to get to your cell phone. If you have ported the number (changed carriers) or made other account changes, the numbers will typically not match.
