Details
(Whiteboard: [psm-backlog])
In Fx36: https://162.13.98.182/ 162.13.98.182 uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for 162.13.98.182 (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain) According to David Keeler, this is expected behavior, as the subject alt names extension has the (invalid) sole entry of "DNS Name: 162.13.98.182" instead of "IP Address". However, the error reporting code does not take the IP address case into account and could be improved.
