## Blocking Devices
|
||||
|
||||
To block a device that has been compromised or lost:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to the device in your client list
|
||||
2. Click the Action Menu (three dots)
|
||||
3. Select **Block**
|
||||
|
||||
When you block a device, it is immediately moved to a restricted list and loses access to all resources or the ability to connect.
|
||||
|
||||
## Archiving Devices
|
||||
|
||||
Devices cannot be permanently deleted from Pangolin. Instead, you can archive devices to remove them from your active client list.
|
||||
|
||||
To archive a device:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to the device in your client list
|
||||
2. Click the Action Menu (three dots)
|
||||
3. Select **Archive**
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Archive Instead of Delete?
|
||||
|
||||
Pangolin maintains a permanent audit trail of all devices that have accessed your resources. This ensures:
|
||||
|
||||
- Block rules remain effective even for archived devices
|
||||
- Security logs and access history are preserved
|
||||
|
||||
Archiving keeps your interface clean by hiding inactive or duplicate devices while maintaining the integrity of your security records.
|
||||
|
||||
## Filtering
|
||||
|
||||
You can filter your client list to show only active, blocked, or archived devices.
