That is the universal connumdrum of the nagios data structures revolving
around hosts.

If you were monitoring a router, you would indeed monitor ever
interface.

I would designate a "administrative" interface, by which you can check
the status of the other interfaces on the system using NRPE remote
checks and/or check_snmp on the interface MIBs.

There's a thousand different ways that you can do it.
