It should be enabled on interface which should never become root port. So you would place on downstream interfaces.

But what about the other switches which are part of your L-2 topology? They will accept the superior BPDU from the rogue switch and which in turn will destroy your L-2 topology. So, to make it simple, you need to place root guard on all the ports of all the switches where you do not expect a root bridge.
