ssl - How do I add a server certificate in FireFox for testing?

Question

I am doing some local development among a series of IIS servers we have in my server room.

In FireFox, I load one of the IIS-hosted test sites, http://geojammer.cmua.edu

The site loads fine, but this site also needs to get data via an api that is from another test server(Windows Server 2016 and IIS) we have. That server is just using an IP address, http://138.149.x.30:7878/api/testsite/geonames

When I examine the developer console, I see this message:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://138.149.x.30:7878/api/testsite/geonames/5aedc187-5833-492a-a5e0-a697b9af0rec

So I googled this, and found out how to add certificate exceptions in FireFox from this Stack Overflow question: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource

But when I try to add an exception for the site http://138.149.x.30:7878, FireFox says it can't identify it.

Does anyone know way around this so I can test my sites?

Thanks!
