A method comprising: advertising a first Internet Protocol (IP) service at a first device over a service-oriented architecture (SOA) bus using a first service name associated with the first IP service, wherein a logical addressing scheme for service names on the SOA bus is distinct from access protocol addressing of devices coupled via the SOA bus; discovering a second IP service associated with a second service name advertised by a second device over the SOA bus, wherein each of the first service name and the second service name comprises a service descriptor uniformly associated with IP service at the SOA bus; transmitting at least a first IP packet to the second device by remotely invoking the second IP service of the second device over the SOA bus; and receiving at least a second IP packet from the second device over the SOA bus through the first IP service.
