Is customizing snmp-traps possible through rmon or some other means so

Dealing mostly with 2960's and 7600's, and trying to figure out if this
is possible.
Even if I have to specify an rmon entry per physical interface, I'm
dealing with small enough numbers that would work.
Something like '<int-name> <int-descr> is <down/up>' or similar would be
ideal.
Going to want to have this for link up/down initially, and then also
setup some traps for taking on interface errors, etc.
Have your trap receiver do a query on the ifIndex that gets sent with
the trap. Example with snmpget where $1 is the ifIndex value:
snmpget -v1 -Oqv -c public host ifAlias.$1 ifName.$1
This will return the "description" of that interface and its name i.e.
Fa0/0.
