Are you looking for a Visio type program? Draw.io is a free alternative.
If you want something crawls your managed switch for LLDP or CDP info then maybe a monitoring system like LibreNMS has a map feature.
Yes! I can not recommend draw.io aka diagrams.net enough! (I still don't understand why it has two names and which name is the current "correct" one)
It works both in the browser, or as a downloadable standalone application that works 100% offline.
My favourite feature is exporting PNG or PDF with the complete diagram XML embedded as metadata, which means they can be opened and edited again by draw.io
It's very useful not only for networking, but all sorts of diagramming needs
The old name is draw.io with the self-hosted version keeping that name. The current name is diagrams.net hosted on their servers.
In the end, it's all the same
