thanks for clarification!
I tried to use the h:commandLink and run into a second question. ;)
page2 is a jsp-file that is stored inside the WEB-INF directory.
When clicking on the generated link of the commandLink-component I get the follwing
404-error: /testapp/WEB-INF/dir/page2.faces - The requested resource is not available.
Does this mean, that hidden jsp-files inside WEB-INF couldn't be used for a Faces-request?
My navigation rule looks like this:
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/page1.jsp<from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>success</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/WEB-INF/dir/page2.jsp</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
I tried a second navigation-rule back from page2 to page1, but the error-message remains?
Is a second navigation-rule necessary or is the "WEB-INF" the problem?
Thanks again!

Hello Chrisi,
what you need is to use <h:commandLink> instead of simple link
on page2, write a navigation case from page1 to page2 and then either:
a) Write an action method for the backing bean of page2, which
sets the "controller.name" property, or
b) Use the Tomahawk <t:updateActionListener> extension, as in this:
<h:commandLink value="Go to page 2" action=""
<t:updateActionListener property="#{controller.name}" value="Chrisi" />
</h:commandLink>
