3. Locate the Authentication Card Quorum Size and select the quorum size from the list.
The quorum size is the minimum number of cards necessary to enable the card holders to
perform the security sensitive operations listed above. The maximum quorum size is five cards.
The actual number of authentication cards registered is always more than the quorum size, so
if you set the quorum size to five, for example, you will need to register at least six cards in the
subsequent steps.
NOTE
Ignore the System Cards setting for now.
