The SEPM initializes the Web Access Console at SEPM Service start. The Web Access Console is configured to only accept incoming connections on the IP address that the system had when the service was initialized.

Restart the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Service to reinitialize the SEPM Web Access console with the correct IP information.
