Does this occur only for one particular address, or for many sites?

The IP address in the error message 172.17.x.y is an internal address used within a network, rather than a web address. Most likely that refers to an application server or proxy server (or other filtering device/service). It is listening on port 7002 according to the information Firefox displayed.

Are you in a company that might be able to provide more information about that system/device?

As of Chrome 53 and Firefox 50, you can no longer enable RC4. You should contact your IT admin to fix the issue.
