Jerry,
Creating standby database and archive data will be transport from standby to standby is called "*Cascaded Standby databases*". Note that, Cascading cannot be used prior to 11.2.0.2, However you are in 11.2.0.3 :)
Also Data Guard broker is also not supported.
You can refer below documents to configure http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14072_01/server.112/e10700/cascade_appx.htm
From my repository i can see MOS Note: Cascaded standby databases [*ID 409013.1*] but unfortunately i cannot able to see that document now, Something wrong.
And you can perform refresh from Standby to Standby duplicate, There is no need to connect only Production/Primary database (or) simply you can perform RMAN usual restore also after taking backup from standby.
Hop this Helps.
