Both commands (ip route-cache flow and ip flow ingress) are *ingress*
netflow.

Egress netflow is "ip flow egress".

As far as I have been able to determine, there is no practical difference
regarding packet flow / router CPU between "ip flow ingress" (on all
individual subifs) and "ip route-cache flow".

I consider this a historic quirk, and assume that it has been kept the
way it is out of a misguided wish for compatibility.
