vms in a NAT network have network access through NAT and get an IP automatically from DHCP. Machines on an internal network have no access to any other network and no DHCP server by default.

I believe that the latter is not correct.

You may be right. Whenever I use internal networks I connect them to a router vm so I have a DHCP server anyway. I assumed there was not one by default because of the wording of the help article, which tells you how to enable the DHCP server if you don't want to use static config.
