The device also supports "double call hold" for FXS interfaces where the called party, 
which has been placed on-hold by the calling party, can then place the calling party on hold 
as well and make a call to another destination. The flowchart below provides an example of 
this type of call hold: 
Figure  27-1: Double Hold SIP Call Flow 
 
The flowchart above describes the following "double" call-hold scenario: 
1.  A calls B and establishes a voice path. 
2.  A places B on hold; A hears a dial tone and B hears a held tone. 
3.  A calls C and establishes a voice path. 
4.  B places A on hold; B hears a dial tone. 
5.  B calls D and establishes a voice path. 
6.  A ends call with C; A hears a held tone. 
7.  B ends call with D. 
8.  B retrieves call with A.
