A constrained system associated with a 3×3 matrix spectral problem of the nonlinear Schrodinger(NLS) hierarchy is proposed. It is shown that the constrained system is a Hamiltonian system with the rigid body type Poisson structure on the Poisson manifold R3N. Further, the reduction of the constrained system extended to the common level set of the complex cones is proved to be the constrained AKNS system on C2N.
