From when is the participant considered occupied?
The call protection Busy on Busy and cross-device Busy on Busy status is only activated:
- for INBOUND calls:
when the call or request has actually been accepted and a connection established.
- for OUTBOUND calls:
as soon as "DIALTONE/DIALING " is signalled on a TAPI line (e.g. lifting the handset) or INVITE on a softphone line (dialling process).
Only then the participant is considered to be busy for the purposes of call protection.
