What do you make your diagrams with?
For a decent network map you really need a network mapper and one of the finest has to be Netdisco - http://netdisco.org/. You will need to get CDP/LLDP(etc) and SNMP running everywhere to get the best out of it. Their support mailing list is one of the best.
- A self hosted connected network devices inventory?

Help Creating a Site Map
Netdisco is a great tool. I spun up an instance in docker and now I know what switch and port every device is connected to.

NTOP – Linux “top” for Node.js part 2, now working directly from CLI-only
For what it's worth, there used to be a package in many Linux repositories called "ntop" [1] but became less popular when they went commercial. There is still a community version but I have no idea how popular it is any more. It was quite popular prior to projects like PiHole. Perhaps the older ntop has fallen out of favor so maybe there won't be any confusion.

MaxMind geolocation in ntopng (No ntopng-data package to install?)
Did you see this? https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/blob/dev/doc/README.geolocation.md
I am trying to get GEO-IP working in ntopng and the instructions at https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/blob/dev/doc/README.geolocation.md say it's more accurate to use MaxMind. So, the very first step says to install ntopng-data package... However, there is no package of that name in the package list in OpnSense.
