------------------------------
on Linux(Ubuntus)

#ssh-keygen -t dsa
# cd /root/.ssh/
# ftp 192.168.120.138
> put id_dsa.pub
> quit

On Mikrotik:

/user ssh-keys import user=admin public-key-file=id_dsa.pub
-----------------------------

Note: if you want to access mikrotik router with another user(not admin)
you need to change like this "/user ssh-keys import user=[UserName] public-key-file=id_dsa.pub"

Maybe better to switch to RSA.

Agreed, you should not be using DSA in 2018. Even RSA isn't great, but Ed25519 keys are not yet supported by Mikrotik.
