From the *Device Management* pane, you can do the following:

- Reboot and factory reset the Litmus Edge device. See [Manage Edge Devices](docId:7vR-_2YDxS0i6t3TB3rNb). 
- Upgrade the version of Litmus Edge. See [Software Updates](docId\:Q9MPElGA-U-fkCFKAnVjl). 
- Manage the disk space policy. 
- Manage FTP and SSH services. See [System Services](docId:2IIwsVZ4SFgrCy63Wqcm0). 
- Configure and initiate system backups and restore operations. To prepare for possible hardware failures, Litmus Edge provides a disaster recovery plan to support device replacement. See [Backup/Restore](docId\:DcXunHyrSEil63hSHCiPr). 
- Create detailed, granular backup templates and exchange these templates between edge devices as JSON files. See [Backup/Restore](docId\:DcXunHyrSEil63hSHCiPr).

**Note:** Litmus Edge supports using Trusted Platform Module (TPM) components to encrypt certain Litmus Edge Manager credentials using hardware security. After configuring TPM on your device, LEM credentials become encrypted by Litmus Edge. If you require assistance with enabling TPM, contact Litmus support.
