VLan not VLanning on GS728TP
Have several cameras which I'd like to put on their own vlan. And I have a server that handles those camers, which I'd like on the camera vlan and default vlan. I find that the GS728TP has 3 default v...

Here is how it should be configured as shown in the image below provided that all devices are within the same subnet:About port 3 where the camera server is connected on VLAN 4, it should be set as untagged (U) with PVID 4. It should also be set as untagged (U) on VLAN 5 to have communication to the cameras connected to ports 14, 16, 18 and 20.
For ports 14, 16, 18 and 20, it should be set as untagged (U) with PVID = 5. These ports should also be set as untagged (U) on VLAN 4 in order for the camera server to have access to the cameras.
About port 23, I did not know that it is the LAN printer. Port 23 should be on VLAN 4, untagged (U) and PVID = 4.
About port 2, you may set it as a member of VLAN 4 (if ever you want it in VLAN 4) set as untagged (U) with PVID = 4.
You can use the default Voice VLAN for IP phones wherein an IP phone is detected by its OID (Object Identifier) and segment all voice traffic.
About the default Auto-Video VLAN, you can use it applications that run multicast traffic.

As I have mentioned in my initial response to you: "Not all NETGEAR switches support tagging on VLAN 1 and it seems that the GS728TP is one of those switches that is why it does not allow you to tag a port or clear anything on VLAN 1. " With regard to this, I suggest you to not use VLAN 1 as the management VLAN. Change your management VLAN to any other VLAN. As reference, kindly read pages 27-28 of the GS728TP software administration manual here about changing the management VLAN.

I know, nice in theory. Unfortunately that is impossible. Evidently you haven't actually tried to do this.
- I create new VLAN12, name it Office and Untag all connected ports to it.
- I create new VLAN 23, name it Cameras, and Untag the Port 3 camera server and all cameras to it.
- I create new VLAN105, do not name it, and Untag port 2 (my management server) to it.
Fine and good. Now comes the bad part. Do I first set the VPID of Port 2 to 105, or do I first set the Management VLAN to 105? Amusingly it doesn't matter, as either approach causes me to lose connection and forces a Festival Of Factory Resets.
