The Blackmagic Web Presenter (HD or 4K does not matter) get the video input from an SDI. To be workable, the Ethernet port must be connected to a VLAN with an IP subnet able to reach the Internet. This can be achieved by configuring a dedicated VLAN connecting to the as you have already started with the port 2 and port 3 connection idea. Just access port config is sufficient for 2 and 3 There it goes the illusion having a fully isolated environment. Alternatively, consider a direct Ethernet link for the BMD Video Presenter to the building network with Internet access.

What I don't understand how to setup is the VLAN with the internet access being able to talk with the web presenter if it is in a different VLAN with a DHCP server feeding it an address. How do I setup a single port on the M4250 to effectively function as a router; bridge two different networks? Thats the crux of my issue. I don't imagine it's in the AV GUI, I'd have to go into the main GUI, but where?

There is no need for routing on the switch.
All you have to configure are two or more access ports for the VLAN with the Internet access, and use these for the link to the building Internet and the Web presenter.
