I'm not an expert on RESTful APIs, so I'm not sure what specifically is supplying the functionality, but it's on the server side of things. It's something passed in via the URL. Here's an example URL from some debug output I have lying around: 
https://nios.mycompany.com/wapi/v2.7/range?network=10.20.30.0/24\&star
+t_addr=10.20.30.40\&_return_fields%2B=disable,extattrs,network\&_pagi
+ng=1\&_max_results=500\&_return_as_object=1
