 There are three potential access scenarios that may be in place
 
- - Local Administrator:    Each InstaGENI rack is initially configured to allow ssh access for one administrator account to all hosts (physical and virtual). If you are this person, than you have access to all hosts  (''boss'', ''ops'', ''control'',  ''flowvisor'' )  in the rack.
+ - Local Administrator:    Each InstaGENI rack is initially configured to allow ssh access for one administrator account to all hosts (physical and virtual). If you are this person, than you have access to all hosts  (''boss'', ''ops'', ''control'',  ''flowvisor'' )  in the rack. Do note that the 'flowvisor' host is now a light-weight VM used for the purposes of forwarding OF traffic from the data plane switch to experimenter controllers and that the actual FOAM/FlowVisor OpenFlow packages are no longer supported. Click [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/OpenFlow/DeploymentSummary#FOAM%20and%20FlowVisor%20at%20InstaGENI%20Racks here] for more information.
 
  - Additional administrative accounts :  User has submitted a request for an administrative account by joining the emulab-ops group and uploading his/her SSH keys via the Emulab web interface.  Once the request is approved by an existing administrator, the new administrator can access web administrative functions, and some hosts (''boss'' and ''ops'') via SSH.
 
- - Access to additional nodes: To get a new administrator SSH access to the control, !FlowVisor, and FOAM nodes , an existing administrator must install the new administrator's SSH  public key from the ''control''  host by running the makeadmin.pl script as instructed [wiki:GENIRacksAdministration/InstaGENIAdministration here] to each of the hosts ''control'', ''foam'' and ''flowvisor''.  Once the SSH keys have been installed, the newly added administrator will have access to all hosts (''boss'', ''ops'', ''control'', ''foam'', ''flowvisor'').
