External ip/host scan (firewall/website)

Hi all,

I have installed Greenbone Community Edition (Linux Ubuntu) and trying to perform a scan against an external ip/host.
Tried several times with different options (CVE/OPENVAS scanner - alive test: considered alive - Base / Full and Fast scan config) however none of these came up with any result.
Log just says the scan has finished.

Is there a specific setup needed to scan an external host/ip or anyone an idea what I am missing here?

thank you
D.
