## Solution: Getting the `dnsmasq.leases` from the Asus router and configuriong the `DHCPLSS` plugin:
1. Enable SSH login on your Asus router
2. Generate a pair of SSH keys and place them inside `/root/.ssh/`
3. In your router's admin-settings, paste the public key and disable "password login" for SSH

6. Try a dry run with the command in step 4. If everything is fine, you should have a `dnsmasq.leases` file at your target location
> [!NOTE]
> You can also use ed25519 keys with passphrases. That makes the rsync command a little bit more complex.
> First, one have to install sshpass: apt-get install sshpass
> 1. create a file with your password that is required for the SSH key: `nano .password`
> 2. Then change the `grabdnsmasq.sh` to: `#!/bin/bash sshpass -P passphrase -f '/root/.password' rsync -avzh -e 'ssh -i /root/.ssh/<yourprivatekey>' <asususer>@192.168.1.1:/var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases /mnt/service-data/netalertx_dhcp.leases/`
> 3. replace:
> - `/root/.password` to the path of the `.password` file
> - `/root/.ssh/yourprivatekey` to the path of your private SSH key that is required for the ASUS router
> - `asususer` to the login name of your ASUS router (standard is `admin`, not recommended)
> - IP address of the ASUS router
> - Path where rsync should copy the dhcp file (it should be a mounted path to NetAlertX) - here I use `/mnt/service-data/netalertx_dhcp.leases/`
7. Edit crontab for root:
`crontab -e`
