First answer: You stick out a carrot. if it doesn't work, it has some issues.
More info: A small treat, like a bite of carrot or a blueberry, is a good way to get your rabbit's attention. A whole carrot is too much. Too many treats can make your rabbit sick.
You can't give the bunny a treat every single time you want it's attention, but if you need to know if your bunny is okay -- for example, if she's sleeping at a time when she's normally awake, and you're afraid she's sick -- then a treat is a good test because healthy, happy rabbits won't turn their favorite treats down, and you'll know right away if your rabbit is fine or needs to see the vet.
Otherwise, you have your rabbit's attention the second you walk in the room. Rabbits are prey animals: they're very much aware whenever anything or anyone is in their territory. The rabbit may choose to ignore you, but this doesn't mean you don't have his attention. If the rabbit is ignoring you or sleeping, and you want it to pay attention to you, try sitting down and talking softly to him.
If your rabbit is scared, angry, or bored, she probably won't want to give you attention. Give your rabbit a better lifestyle, and she will be more fun. Do some research about rabbit care and behaviour. See the related questions below for more info and helpful links.
