A VPN does not encrypt your traffic other than between the VPN endpoints.
Which is perfectly fine if the VPN endpoints are the client and mainframe.
In most implementations, VPN is used to cross the public Internet only.
With "most (implementations)" being the operative word (phrase).
Once the traffic hits the edge of the target network, the encryption
disappears.
It depends.
IPsec (in transport mode) between the client and mainframe (as the VPN
endpoints) would definitely provide end-to-end encryption.
