Hello,
Running 384.6 of the firmware and I have a question about the NVRam and ssh keys.
I access my router from a number of devices using ssh, so I only allow access via keys and not password from the internet mainly.
My issue is each time I add a key in the web gui, it eats up NVRAM space, yet it also writes the keys into the authorized_keys file.
As you can see my NVRam is very low, not sure why? but if I remove my ssh keys it does go down..
Internal Storage
NVRAM usage 65274 / 65536 bytes
JFFS 14.04 / 62.75 MB
Is there a way to only store the ssh keys in the authorized_keys, either on jffs or being that I use USB storage on the routers on that storage, I could save up to 1K+ of NVRAM?
or are there recommendations regarding lowering the NVRam usage on this device?
I also use it as an openVPN with three Asus router to Asus router links, could this be an issue with the NVRAM too?
thank you
Pasquale
