The web server needs to access the database server and so on. At home I have just one network and every thing is internal. At work we have an internal network and all internet-facing services are on an isolated network with an industrial grade firewall and application filter severely restricting access from the internet. All the hosts are already on an “internal” network of some variety, so setting up a another one seems redundant. I also feel that configuring the host for bridge mode is much more convenient than installing a separate physical network.
