Self Signed Certificate Errors FF33+

I am the Network Administrator at several different locations and I must use FF32 to be able to access the online local gui for our routers and switches. With FF33+ I get a Secure Connection Failed Error because the Certificates are self-signed by Cisco and other companies. Is there a work around for this?

hello shanelynn321, what kind of error code are you getting on that page when you try to access the gui and is there an option to add an exception?

I was actually unable to duplicate this error. I just updated from 32 to 34.0.5 on one of my other computers and I did not receive a secure connection failed like I usually received when attempting to access our router. I have the http disabled for web access and So i have to enter https://(gatewayaddress). Either Mozilla fixed this issue, or it worked on the test device because the certificate is already installed, or because it is on the domain part of my network. I'll test it out on a different computer i have which is not on the domain.

AWESOME!! :) Mozilla fixed this problem :) Looks like I can reenable automatic updates :D Thanks Mozilla :D Firefox Fan All Out!! :D
