I have done something similar with interfaces, the only way I know is to 
define each interface as a service. I realise this is potentially a lot 
of services. We do this on core network device interfaces, but only 
define services for interfaces that are in use. This is an automated 
process so as interfaces are activated/deactivated they are added or 
removed from the Nagios configuration files. As the only alerts are 
passive ones for these services, it isn't as though one is introducing 
something like a vast increase in active checks.

HTH,
