What Article of the Constitution gave Congress the authority to create a federal court system?

Article III relates to the Judicial branch of government, and mandates creation of the Supreme Court. It also authorizes Congress to create federal judicial system below the Supreme Court, but not set forth rules for accomplishing this goal.

Article I addresses the role of the Legislative branch in government, and, again, empowers Congress to create Article I and III courts and tribunals, as the need arises.
Article II of the Constitution addresses the authority of the President and the Executive branch of government. One power assigned the President is the ability to nominate US Supreme Court justices and Article III federal judges, with the "advice and consent" of the Senate.
Each of the first three Articles discusses the courts to one degree or another, but none "set up rules for the federal court system." The Constitution creates a framework for government and describes the enumerated and separate powers of the various branches, and how they interrelate, but does not provide much specific instruction for day-to-day operation.
