(PM) Lost Carrier Statistics

In my efforts to try to track down troublesome ports, I've written a
simple perl script that parses RADIUS detail files and reports the number
of logins each port has had and the number of Lost-Carrier disconnects
that a given port has had. My site-wide average ratio of Lost-Carrier
disconnects to logins seems to be about 1:5, with some as low as 1:12 and
some as high as 1:2.5. I am using this as a guide to find ports that have
extremely high disconnect rates.

Has anyone here attempted to extract similar statistics, and if so, what
would you say your average is? Is 1:5 (20%) a high rate of disconnect, or
is it pretty much an acceptable ratio?
