# Setting Up the CTERA Edge Filer

Setting the CTERA Edge Filer time and language or enabling remote access from a CTERA Portal is performed from within the CTERA Edge Filer user interface.

Setting up the CTERA Edge Filer storage and users is described in [Setting Up the Storage](/v1/docs/setting-up-the-storage-2-1-1-1) and [Adding and Editing Users](/v1/docs/adding-and-editing-users-6-1-1-1), if this was not done during the initial CTERA Edge Filer set up.

## Viewing CTERA Edge Filer Details

You can view general information about the CTERA Edge Filer, such as the storage used, license details, and the firmware version.

- In the **Configuration** view, select **Main > This Edge Filer** in the navigation pane.  

The **This Edge Filer** page opens, displaying the edge filer details.

**Note**

The **Change License** option under **Edge Filer License** is not displayed for a CTERA HC100 Edge Filer, which has an EV4 license. Clicking **Update Firmware** opens the **Firmware** page, described in [Upgrading the Edge Filer Version](/v1/docs/upgrading-the-edge-filer-2-1-1-1).
