Patent abstract

Multiple network processors (201, 202, 203) are connected in a pipeline via control (206) and data (205) ports of the network processors. The network processors (201, 202, 203) communicate with neighboring network processors through the control and data ports. Through these ports, the network processors can implement a variety of data flow control protocols.
