A network processor useful in network switch apparatus and methods of operating such a processor in which data flow handling and flexibility is enhanced by the cooperation of an embedded processor complex with a suite of peripherals, all formed on a common semiconductor substrate. The interface processors provide data paths for inbound and outbound data flow and operate under the control of instructions stored in an instruction store formed on the semiconductor substrate, while storage of transiting data flow portions is provided by memory peripherals and interfaces to external memory elements.
