Hi,
Thank you for posting in Symantec community.
Make sure Locations are being applied correctly on all network adapters, or only when connecting over one? (For instance: when the laptop is connected to the office network, it correctly detects the configured location, but when connecting over the wireless network card, it is not being assigned to the WIFI" location.)
The challenge today's Network Administrator is facing is the various types of devices that appear in the corporate network through several network connection interfaces such as Eternet, WiFi and VPN.
Furthermore the devices will be often be authorized corporate devices or personal devices.
The following items are important to consider:
-
Location of the endpoint: Internet or the Corporate Network
-
Connection is established by what Interface: Cable, WLAN, VPN
-
Device is a managed standard corporate device or non-standard allowed device.
I would recommend to go through the following articles & see the given examples:

Known issue: Cisco Anyconnect VPN client is not causing the location to switch on the Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) client

If you feel everything is setup correctly then need to go through the logs to troubleshoot further.
