Unable to Launch ASDM 7.5(1) with FIPS Enabled

I am unable to launch the ASDM on ASA 9.4(2)11 with ASDM 7.5(1) with FIPS enabled, if FIPS is disabled then the ASDM launches successfully.

The ASA has a self-signed certificate [Public Key Type: RSA (2048 bits), Signature Algorithm: SHA1 with RSA Encryption] & Associated Trustpoints: ASDM_Trustpoint.

ssl server-version tlsv1.2
ssl cipher default fips
ssl cipher tlsv1 fips
ssl cipher tlsv1.1 fips
ssl cipher tlsv1.2 fips
ssl cipher dtlsv1 fips
ssl dh-group group14

ssl trust-point ASDM_Trustpoint INSIDE

The following error in the IE11 browser with Java 8.5:

"This page can’t be displayed

Turn on TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 in Advanced settings and try connecting to https://10.24.0.20 again. If this error persists, contact your site administrator."

A the main difference between FIPS disabled and enabled

Issue related to Trustpoint certificate generated on the ASA only being SHA1

Interface INSIDE: ASDM_Trustpoint (RSA 2048 bits RSA-SHA1)


It would appear we are unable to generate a self-signed SHA256 certificate on the ASA itself in 9.4(2)-11. Importing an off the box cert works OK.
