Oracle RAC listener on a 2nd network

Hello All - 
I have a 11.2.0.4 Oracle RAC running on Sparc platform with 3 nodes. I have the 
scan listeners configured on Network_A and an application is using the scan 
Listeners.

Without impacting the above setup, I would like to create a second database in 
the RAC environment and setup access for another set of applications through 
another network Network_B. They both are independent networks (its a 
requirement based on the legacy networks we have). I need the listener for the 
second database to be listening on Network_B.  

Example:
Network_A - 192.168.6.x
Network_B - 10.120.2.x

What are my options in creating such a setup and what are the 
limitations/constraints in this setup?

I'd assume if I bypass the SCAN listeners and access the database listener 
directly, I'd have to keep up with the cluster changes at the application layer 
(like node additions/removal etc).. Similar to Oracle 10g RAC - anything else?

Thanks much
