SSH with id_rsa.pub (public key)

pedeb04

Occasional Visitor
Currently I ssh into the router by having enabled ssh and copied my id_rsa.pub on the asuswrt-merlin web interface.
After installing the entware package Openssh-client on the router I thought I would be able to copy the public key to home/.ssh/authorized_keys. This is how I do it between my linux machines.
But after installing openssh-client on the router there is no .ssh directory.
Which got me thinking where does asuswrt-merlin software store the id_rsa.pub I copied to the web interface?
 
Is there a /opt/root/.ssh/authorized_keys file after installing Entware’s version?
