But that is NOT what you asked.
Rulesets are user programming tools and it is up to you to experiment with
them to come up with a solution that is right for you.  But basically, to
forward all traps from one device you could add to your ruleset and
additional path in which  you use the event attribute node in the ruleset
to check for the trap origin and have it match that device's hostname.

The point is, I need to forward all UP and Down Events to the TEC (which is
no Problem)
AND all Traps from one node, which is our Hicom Server.
