11gr2 Clusterware config (or: does anyone know what an endpoint is?)

So, I recently took ownership of an 11gR2 cluster. One of the first things I noticed is that the SCAN was not set up correctly. The nslookup showed only 2 ip addresses, not the required 3. I am not sure how they managed to install it this way, but I am trying to fix it. I had the network guys add the 3rd ip to the scan round robin, then ran (after stopping scan and scan listener):

srvctl modify scan -n <scan-name>

Well, we had connection (connect failures on every third attempt) problems and oracle said I had to add a scan listener, and gave me the syntax for adding a scan listener (ie, they copied it out of the doc). (see below). So, now I have given oracle the output of my srvctl config scan command asked for an example of what the command should look like with my given information. And no answer yet. So I suspect that oracle support doesnt know exactly how to do this either. Has anyone used the srvctl add scan_listener command, or know how to do it?

srvctl add scan_listener [-l <lsnr_name_prefix>] [-s] [-p [TCP:]<port>[/IPC:<key>][/NMP:<pipe_name>][/TCPS:<s_port>] [/SDP:<port>]]
-l <lsnr_prefix> SCAN listener name prefix
-s Skip the checking of ports
-p [TCP:]<port>[/IPC:<key>][/NMP:<pipe_name>][/TCPS:<s_port>] [/SDP:<port>]
SCAN Listener endpoints
-h Print usage
