Create a script to open firefox with security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_256/128_sha turned off until browser is closed
So I need to create a script that opens up FF with these settings turned off. Long story short we have some cisco software that needs these turned off to access. All other browers and win 10 don't allow access due to the vulnerability it causes.
I was hoping someone would have some insight or know if there's just some registry settings that can be toggled to accomplished this.
Thanks for the help
Most likley be using PS to accomplish this as mostly a windows shop, but can use other methods as well.

Those preferences can be permanently set to false to trigger servers vulnerable to Logjam to up their game. Is there any reason not to permanently set them to false in about:config rather than having that as a special startup configuration? (Because actually I can't think of a way to do it from the command line.)
Administrators can pre-configure preferences using either:
- user.js file (per Firefox profile) - http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file
- Autoconfig file (per program directory) - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences , https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/
You can use the mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to set or lock preferences and run privileged JavaScript code.
A local-settings.js file needs to be placed in the "defaults/pref" folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, allow changes in current session lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
The mozilla.cfg file needs to start with a comment line (//).
