Disable traps only for hosts not services

Hi
I am looking for an option in Nagios xi or Nagios core, where the SNMP traps should not be sent for hosts but it should send for services.
I had disabled notification for host from nagios core(attached snapshot for reference), but it doesnt look like it worked.
Thanks
Deepan

Do you mean the SNMP Trap Sender component where XI sends traps to a trap receiver?
If so, you would go to
Admin -> Manage Components -> SNMP Trap Sender -> Edit Settings
Under the Hosts column, select "None"
Click Apply Settings

I got your point,scott.
This is for only couple of servers not for all the servers that we are monitoring in that nagios instance. We are having 300+ servers being monitored in that instance.Out of which only 2 , we wanted to disable the host level traps.

Unfortunately at this time there is no builtin mechanism to turn off sending for specific hosts.
