Global optimization of the energy consumption in heterogeneous environments has been recently an important research issue in wired and wireless networks. This paper presents a general framework for flexible and cognitive backbone network management which leads to the minimization of the energy utilized by the network. The policy for activity control of all the modules and elements that form a network is introduced and discussed. The idea of the system is to achieve the desired trade-off between energy consumption and network performance according to the traffic load.
