We have Oracle 19c Client installed in our application Unix server.
When we connect to a 19c Database server from our application Unix server, it is working as expected.
But when we try Connecting 11gR2 Database schema using sqlplus from our application server, getting the error ORA-12650 : No Common Encryption or data integrity algorithm
From our application Unix server, we did a tnsping with the connect descriptor we had used. TNSPING is working fine from our application server.
etladm@myappserver992[DEV][admin] $ tnsping MYOLD_DB_DEV

Note: In our application server we have both Oracle 11gR2 Oracle client as well as 19c Oracle client are installed due to other module's dependencies. But Unix PATH variable is set to point Oracle 19c Oracle home path
etladm@myappserver992[DEV][~] $ echo $ORACLE_HOME
/u01/app/oracle/product/client/19c
etladm@myappserver992[DEV][~] $
sqlnet.ora found in our 19c Client admin directory:

We are unable to upgrade our 11gR2 DB currently. So looking for any settings at sqlnet.ora or somewhere.
Edit #1: We are able to connect to 12c Oracle DB server from our application server using 19c sqlplus.

SEC_USER_AUDIT_ACTION_BANNER=/u01/app/oracle/global/scripts/BANNER/dbbanner.txt
Your 19c client sqlnet.ora requires a SHA256 checksum:
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT = REQUIRED SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT = AES256 SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT = REQUIRED SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT = SHA256
Oracle 11gR2 only supports the SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_SERVER value SHA1. See documentation here: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/network.112/e40393/asoappa.htm#ASOAG9780.
If you want to make a TCPS connection to the 11.2 database, you're going to have to include SHA1 in the list of SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT values on your 19c client, and see that the server sqlnet.ora is similarly configured. Note that use of SHA1 has been considered insecure since at least 2016.
client sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT = REQUIRED
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT = (SHA256, SHA1)
11gR2 server sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER = REQUIRED
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER = AES256
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_SERVER = REQUIRED
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_SERVER = SHA1
Also note that per Oracle Support Doc ID 207303.1 your 11gR2 database must be at least version 11.2.0.3 or 11.2.0.4 to support a 19c client. Previous releases (e.g. 11.2.0.1) do not support the 19c client at all.
