Ok. But how can I reduce number of ports scaned by
plugins? 

In conjunction with unscanned_closed, you do this by preventing the port
scanners from detecting them as open. My guess is that ping_host.nasl
was being run in your case and, since it uses its own configurable range
of ports, it was detecting additional ports as open too.
