The Source Address is the address of the station that created and sourced the frame. In FDDI, when a station sources a frame, the frame is passed from one station to the next until it gets back to the originating station. The originating station then strips the frame (the station will remove the frame from the physical medium). If a station receives a frame and the source address of that frame matches the address of the station, then the station will strip the frame from the network. Each station is responsible for removing its own frames from the ring.
