There are many ways to accomplish this:

The easiest is to pass attributes in session object.

JSP1:

session.setAttribute("param1","some value here");

JSP2:

String param1 = session.getAttribute("param1").toString();
session.removeAttribute("param1");

Another way is by using url parameters using the response.sendRedirect():

JSP1:

response.sendRedirect("jsp2.jsp?param1=param value&param2=value for param2");

JSP2:

String param1 = request.getParameter("param1"); //param value
String param2 = request.getParameter("param2"); //value for param2
