Abstract
Non-address data is received for transmission on a non-transitory communication medium communicably coupling a plurality of devices, wherein the communication medium includes an address component and a data transport component separate from the address component. At least a portion of the non-address data is inserted into a portion of an address command. An indicator is set in the address command to notify a receiver that the information received in the address command over the address component is not associated with a memory address. The address command containing the non-address data is then sent over the address component of the communication medium.
