How does Transient status work with addresses released by a DHCP server?

My understanding is that IPAM assigns the Transient status to an IP address that fails to respond during a scan, and it will maintain that designation up to the time period set in the IPAM Settings menu, unless that address shows as in use on a subsequent scan.

Assuming I have that concept correct, what will IPAM do with a Transient address if it is DHCP and has been released by a DHCP server? In other words, say the Transient setting is 7 days in IPAM, but the DHCP server releases that address after 2 days. How will IPAM designate that address on the next scan if it is found to be in use? Will it show it as Transient or as Used?
