It does not require a subnet mask.
If this is a default subnet mask, then it would be a class C subnet mask. If you are subnetting a network and this is not the default subnet mask, then it could be either a class A or class B.
Subnet mask
The default subnet mask has a standard size. The custom subnet mask allows you to make subnets that are smaller or larger than the default.
The correct term is subnet mask instead of subnet mass. A subnet mask separates an IP address into the host address and the network address. It is a 32-bit number that can mask an IP address.
RIP VERSIONV1 can be seen to exclude subnet information from routing updates, this is because ripv1 is a classful routing protocol and does not support VSLM, this was corrected in RIPv2 where ripv2 does send out subnet mask's in the form of a prefix eg /24 which is the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 or a class c address.
