Firefox cannot display website that use certificate with DH key 1024 bits
After I change web site certificate to use DH key with 1024 bits length, Firefox can not display the web site and provided error like "Secure Connection failed ...". I had tried disable weak cipher dhe but still not working, I had test with Internet Explorer and determine the connection as TLS 1.2 with DH 1024 bits but I do need to browse this web site from Firefox please help.
- Using Firefox 47.0

My Firefox supports these ciphers, according to https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/viewMyClient.html:
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xc02b) 128 TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xc02f) 128 TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (0xcca9) 256 TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (0xcca8) 256 TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA (0xc00a) 256 TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0xc009) 128 TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0xc013) 128 TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA (0xc014) 256 TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0x2f) 128 TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA (0x35) 256 TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA (0xa) 112
So it seems your server doesn't support any ciphers used by Firefox 47.

Looks like you posted using Chrome. Any issues in Chrome? Usually Chrome displays any SSL-related warnings when you click the padlock in the address bar and then click Connection on the drop-down panel.
Could you use this diagnostic page to check your site: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/
For example, it evaluates whether numerous different browsers would be able to connect. If their Firefox won't connect, then it's not just your Firefox.
If this is a general Firefox problem, can you give a link to the site?
It's an internal website, desktop that I need to connect to the website is using Firefox 47.0.1 but I just post this post using my laptop.
I can not use the diagnostic tool because it's an internal web site
What does Chrome show?
On that machine there is no Chrome install but on IE when I see the connection properties it is "TLS 1.2 AES with 128 bit encryption (High); DH with 1024 bit exchange".
Sorry, I don't know to translate that into the way Firefox describes its ciphers. Maybe you can find a tool that runs inside the firewall to interrogate the server and list out the ciphers it supports to see whether there is a match with Firefox.
Do you have any recommend tool to do that?
When I search around, there seem to be a lot of little scanners out there, but I don't know which ones are trustworthy.
For example:
After use 'NMAP' below is list of support cipher that website using:
C:\nmap\nmap-7.12>nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 10.136.82.105
