There does not exist such an interface in the D-Bus specification. The
standard interface org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer offers the methods Ping and
GetMachineId, which are something different. See
<https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-peer>.
The Java D-Bus bindings offer the interface
org.freedesktop.dbus.DirectConnection, which "Handles a peer to peer
connection between two applications withou a bus daemon.". See
<https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-java/api/org/freedesktop/dbus/DirectConnection.html>. Likely
this is what you've asked for; it isn't implemented in the Emacs bindings.

Best regards, Michael.
