These INI parameters are applicable to thin clients with Dell standard BIOS.
NOTE: All DellCmos settings, except CurrentPassword and
CurrentPasswordEnc, take effect after power off restart.
CurrentPassword—This option provides the
current BIOS password for changing BIOS settings when device's admin password is
available.
CurrentPasswordEnc—This option is used to provide encrypted current password.
NewPassword—This option is used to change device's password. Current
Password is not required if device's admin password is not available.
NewPasswordEnc—This option is used to provide encrypted new password.
NOTE: Password encrypted is of higher priority. For example: If both
CurrentPassword and CurrentPasswordEnc are configured, then
CurrentPasswordEnc overwrites the CurrentPassword.

is yes. All Dell BIOS settings take effect after the power off restart.

prevents user from entering setup when an admin password is set. Default value is no.
