Tailscale Premium: Subnet router throughput anomaly
Description
Identifies when a subnet router (gateway node bridging the tailnet to an on-prem or cloud subnet) handles 3x or more its 7-day baseline traffic in the last hour. Spikes can indicate exfiltration or scanning. Requires Tailscale Premium or Enterprise.
