Hi I would suggest you to garb some documentation of openssl commands.
Thats enough for
your problem.

Well, you can get certificate get imported to your firefox using following
commands.

1)
openssl s_client -connect www.google.co.in:443 -showcerts

here copy text between last

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

save it to file say cert.ansi

2)
openssl asn1parse -in cert.ansi -out cert.der

here you will get FX importable certificate cert.der

as mentioned earlier if server (MAN in Middle) is forcing TLS1.1/ use can
add check (-ssl3) in first command.

3) import cert.der to your fx in trusted root authorities

Thanks,
Saurabh Pandya
