Endpoint Protection

Hello People
I need to block the Location Option on Client Management. I have multiple locations on my EPM.

If I open the EndPoint Client Options on a PC, go to Change Settings, Configure Setting on Client Management Options, General Tab - We can change the current location Manually. I want to block (Gray Out) this option.

Pls let me know Thanks

I can select a different location from the drop-down menu as you are suggesting but there is no way to 'apply' the change and making other selections does not actually change the location that my client is using.

This appears to be cosmetic. 

It appears that if I change my location from one to another from the configure tab, it doesn't actually change anything. Perhaps this would be a good enhancement request to submit to our developers to change in a future release.

At this time it appears that this does nothing, and your users would not be able to change their location.

Jeremy appears to be correct on this. I too tried to change location with this, however it did not move the client to the alternate location nor did the policies change to the alternate location.

a managed client should only be able to change location (thus change the policys relating to the location settings) based on what the Administrator has set up in the "Manage Locations" section of the SEPM.

If you go to 'open the EndPoint Client Options on a PC, go to Change Settings, Configure Setting on Client Management Options, General Tab' and click the "Help" button, there will be a more descriptive explanation of the 'Current Location' dropdown, including it's limitations.

I would like to follow this up by saying that if you have multiple locations whose critieria overlap, it is possible to have multiple locations that the client is able to fit in. When that's the case, a client should be able to switch locations in this manner. The best resolution to the original question is to ensure that your location switching criteria only alows for the client to fit into one location at a time. 

Even I feel its just a cosmatic isssue. The clients are not able to change the location if they try to do so.

OK OK

Thanks for the post
