Try walking IF-MIB::ifMIB, and you will see a.o. the following

 IF-MIB::ifName         Short name, e.g. "Fa0/1"
 IF-MIB::ifAlias        Interface description
 IF-MIB::ifHighSpeed    Interface bandwidth in mbps

If you need more details about the specific interface types you need to
look at ENTITY-MIB (try walking ENTITY-MIB::entityMIB). You can match up
data from IF-MIB with ENTITY-MIB::entAliasMappingIdentifier.
