Hello! We use a website, where you can use certificates for authentication. The website offers different certificates for different subsites. When entering the site I have to choose one of the certificates available to login.

My question is: Is or will it be possible to start the browser using a command line option to automatically select the certificate. Of course this requires the command line option for the url.

Examples: /usr/bin/firefox www.example.com -certificate name_of_certificate1 -> redirects to subsite 1 /usr/bin/firefox www.example.com -certificate name_of_certificate2 -> redirects to subsite 2

Thank you very much!
