1. A network device comprising a processor including a non-transitory computer readable medium storing program modules executable by the processor, the modules comprising: a judging module; a number extracting and sending module; and a processing module; wherein the judging module is configured to send a request for extracting a calling phone number of a third party to the number extracting and sending module in response to determining that a called terminal has activated call waiting service and that the called terminal is in a call process when the third party originates a third-party call to the called terminal; wherein the number extracting and sending module is configured to extract the calling phone number of the third party in response to the request of the judging module and to send the phone number to the called terminal; wherein the processing module is configured to receive a processing suggestion on the third-party call from the called terminal and to process the third-party call according to the processing suggestion on the third-party call; wherein the processing module is further configured to process the third-party call by delivering a paging message to the called terminal when the processing suggestion is allowing access by the calling phone number of the third party and returning a ring back tone indicating that a user is busy to a third-party user; and wherein the processing module is further configured to process the third-party call by not delivering the paging message to the called terminal when the processing suggestion is denying the access by the calling phone number of the third party.
