[cisco-voip] CUCM 11.5(1)SU6, Port 6972 and EC Certs

[Anthony Holloway]

I was originally testing in FireFox ESR 68 with this CUCM 11.5(1)SU6.

To take your suggestion, I used FireFox ESR 60 and IE 11 and it still
happens.

In my CUCM 11.5(1)SU5, where this doesn't happen,I am using FireFox ESR 60
and IE 11 as well.

So there's two major differences then, the CUCM version and where we get
our certificates from (different end customers).
