How to make an RMI call / an EJB call from WebLogic Server (WLS)  12.2.1 to WLS 10.3.6?

The same call has been working fine from WLS 12.1.3 to WLS 10.3.6, but trying to call from WLS 12.2.1 to WLS 10.3.6 with exactly the same application code and configuration, fails with:

Is there any additional configuration required in WLS 12.1.3?
