A secure connection cannot be established, error after updating chrome and firefox

I am using F5 LTM for my websites to be load balanced. Recently, after Google Chrome's update, I could find that while accessing the website, it throws an error as shown below:

 

 

Same issue with Firefox (after the update) too, but not with IE. I was pretty sure that the sites were working before. I did tried rejecting SSLv3 (by modifying ciphers), but didn't work.Regarding my certificate, I use a single certificate for 3 different websites (not a wildcard one). When I changed mapping to this website specific certificate, it worked, but not with the one I used so far. Can't I use a single cert for 3 different sites anymore? What could be the issue for this?

    Hi vysakhv90,

    how does your client-ssl profile look like? What TMOS version and hotfix are you using?

    You can test valid cipher strings for your client-ssl profile on CLI by entering i.e.: 
     tmm --clientcipher 'DEFAULT:!SSLv3'
