Eli had a slight slip in his answer. The (footprint) goes under the tent to help preserve the tent floor. The vestibule is added space outside the interior of the tent for additional storage and weather protection.

The separate floor (footprint) is placed under the tent to provide added protection from rocks and sticks from causing wear and tear to the tent floor. It extends the longevity of the floor which generally receives the most use. As far the the strings you mentioned, I believe you are referring to the guylines. The guylines are staked into the ground to add weather protection (keep your tent from blowing away)
