The net needs to have slack in height and width.

Most commercial nets are 5ft deep when streched, which you then set roughly 2ft high, this causes the net to bag.

also for every 1 yard of set length, you need 2+ yards of net (stretched length)

As in a 25yard net you actually have 50yards of netting on 25 yard long head and foot lines.

You don't have to, but some people do.

here is a little picture, to put the "picture" in your head

 

I never bothered about gaining bagging by height. Just a little height a liked, to put a "belly" in the net. But hey, each to their own

when the rabbits hit the net, they trod on it before they hit the back of the net. I found that this helps in getting them more tangled
