point until the Abandoned Call timer
expires.

rings principal endpoint until the
Recall timer expires. Then it recalls
the principal endpoint's attendant.

If the principal endpoint does not
have an attendant, the call continues
to ring at the principal endpoint until
the Abandoned Call timer expires.
