What is the 1st step in designing network layer addressing and naming for a network?

| Hello!
I have a question:
What is the 1st step in designing network layer addressing and naming for a network?
[A] Design a plan for distributing administratvie authority
for addressing and framing at the lower levels of the
hierarcy
[B] Desgin route summarization(aggregation)
[C] Design a method for mapping geographical locations to
network numbres.
[D] Design a hierarcy for addressing autonomus systems,
areas, networks, sub networks, and station.
Variant "B" is specified in one source, in the friend - variant "D". What is the really RIGHT answer? Why? 
thank you, | |
|
| What are your sources? For instance CCDA training Kit by Cisco press proposes variant D and variant B is the 2nd step. | |

| Between B and D, I'll go for D as the first step.
You can't aggregate routes until a proper hierarchical and contiguous addressing plan has been put in place.
Going by that, C will be another answer if the physical layout and logical addressing of the network are related. This will mean that the addressing plan has to be based on both B and C.
