Is there a way to auto discover a specific WCF service in the network? I don’t want to config my client with the address if this is possible.

What you want to look at is the WS-Discovery protocol. I found a sample on netfx3’s website of using the specification. I would recommend searching services based on scope, by probing for services based on a specific endpoint.
