Description Contention occurs if no free channel is available when DCC tries to originate a call.
Normally, after a link is set up, timer idle timing will take effect. However, if a call to a
different destination address is to be originated on this interface under the contention
circumstances, DCC replaces the timer idle timing with the timer compete timing.
