Thank you for the good suggestions!

1. I tested setting target as consider alive, full tcp scan and full and
fast and tried again to scan over VPN, the results are exactly the same as
before and no improvement.

2. I tried probing the target host with nmap over VPN, it showed "0 hosts
up". So nmap showed the same unwanted results as openvas. Any suggestions
on how to make changes? Thanks a lot!

TY
