Hi,

Nobody I know seems to explain me how a network communicates in the following way.

Say you have a 24 port switch 10/100/1000. Servers with one networkcard enabled (1 GB) communicate with other server in 1 GB. Say we have 4 citrix servers with 1 GB NIC on 1 GB. There is one fileserver with 1 GB. Can the citrix servers communicate simultaneous with the file server?

Say you have 100 MB clients they use the 1 GB line. Can 10 clients communicate simultaneous with the file server?

Maybe there a paper where all this is explained.

Is it beter to have 4 nic's in the fileserver?

We have a problem with 4 Citrix servers which often are slow when talking with other servers (mail and file servers).

Multiple devices can communicate simultaneously with another device. The only network level limitation is bandwidth -- if there's enough bandwidth available, the issue is likely elsewhere (e.g., on the server itself).
