Default HP B-Series Fibre Switch / Brocade 3200

HP's current fibre switches from Brocade are known as the B-Series. What
makes a B-series versus a non B-series switch? Are B-Series based on
Linux core, and the earlier ones are the Windriver core?

We have a Compaq branded 2/8-EL, which from the boot prompt appears to be a
Brocade 3200 with the Windriver OS core. That's not B-Series? Where do
I find the firmware upgrade for the switch we have?

The switch has the zoning license showing in the licenseShow command, but
from the web admin interface, I don't see any option for zoning
configuration. Is there a trick to getting this to pop up?
