virtualhost - Apache server-status configuration is ignored by Virtual Host - Apache 2.4

Question

My environment:

• GNU/Debian 10
• Apache 2.4 with mod-status
• Virtual Host name based.

I have this restriction on status.conf.

<IfModule mod_status.c>
        # Allow server status reports generated by mod_status,
        # with the URL of http://servername/server-status
        # Uncomment and change the "192.0.2.0/24" to allow access from other hosts.

        <Location /server-status>
                SetHandler server-status
                Require ip <private-ip>/26
                Require ip <public-ip>/24
                Require ip some.ip...
        </Location>

        # Keep track of extended status information for each request
        ExtendedStatus On

        # Determine if mod_status displays the first 63 characters of a request or
        # the last 63, assuming the request itself is greater than 63 chars.
        # Default: Off
        #SeeRequestTail On
        <IfModule mod_proxy.c>
                # Show Proxy LoadBalancer status in mod_status
                ProxyStatus On
        </IfModule>
</IfModule>

Suppose I have a Virtual Host named www.example.org.

This configuration seams to have no effect when I reach https://www.example.org/server-status with a client. All my requests works, with or without my VPN. Even if my requests are outside "required ip".

But if I move those configuration inside my VirtualHost www.example.org, it works! If my requests comes from a required IP it's OK, but if they come from outside the required range it fails.

Why global Apache configurations are ignored by Virtual Host? Thanks.
