Configuring fireFox

I am using fireFox web browser version 51.0.1 (32 bit) on a windows Xp machine.
I wish to configure fireFox in an equivalent way to that in internet explorer as shown below:

In IE--> Tools --> Internet Options --> 'Advanced' TAB :
Uncheck: Use SSL 2.0 / Use SSL 3.0
Check: Use TLS 1.0 / Use TLS 1.1 / Use TLS 1.2 Using IE 9.

Can this be done and if so where do I find these settings in Firefox please ?
I don't have internet explorer on the machine and don't particularly want to install it.

Hi,

When you install firefox and open first time, it ask you to import settings from IE, Chrome etc. Did you selected that option? if so, the TLS,SSL settings already using same as IE.

Use this method otherwise. Open Firefox>>In the address bar type about:config, in the search box type 'security.tls.version.min' or 'max', once you found the entry double click and enter the desired tls value in it. Do the same for SSL as well.

I couldn't find a way other than this.

when you click best solution, does it not have a prompt at the bottom of the screen prompting for next?
You have to follow through to confirm that this is what you wanted versus an error in swiping across one of the options.
