Err... no. That wouldn't make sense.
The "monitor" line will look for instances of the 'nsExtendResult' object,
and any varbinds in the trap will have the same index value appended
to them. If you add the index value of an column object of a table, to
an internal structural OID, then you'll get a meaningless OID.
The only reason I suggested "-o .1.3.6.1.4.1.3658.500", is that you had
this in the original line. I didn't know why, so was reluctant to just
drop it. It sounds as if you don't know why it's there either, so I'll
follow my initial instincts.
Omit the '-o' option altogether - the standard trap varbinds should include
all the information you need to interpret the trap sensibly.

The monitor command above will look for *any* non-zero value of
nsExtendResult, and trigger the corresponding trap. You don't
need to repeat this line for each one individually.
The monitor line will distinguish between them in exactly the
same way that the nsExtend tables do - using the (string)
index values.

"dhcp_partner_down" is indeed the string that distinguishes this entry
from any others. But note that this is taken from the second field of
the "extend" line - *not* the name of the script itself.
Try with the line
extend random_name /root/dhcpd_partner_down.sh
and see how this affects the results of walking the nsExtend* tables.
