VirtualBox Tutorial – Giving VMs Internal Network, Host PC and Internet Access
You can use a NAT networking adapter and Host-only networking adapter to allow VMs to communicate with each other, the Host PC and the internet.
Step 1) Create Host-only Network (this will act as our internal network)
Step 2) Add Host-only network to VMs
Step 3) Configure the Network Adapters on the VMs
Step 4) Open traffic for the VM Firewalls on the Host-only Network Adapter
