I really really doubt you're on IP6.

run "ifconfig".

If you're running IP6, you'll see stuff like:
"inet6 addr:" on the lines
along with or instead of
"inet addr:"

Now, you may even have both (many Linux servers do if it's not turned off)! So, which one are you using?

Do you see an IP address for the IP6 line? If all you see is hex numbers for the Mac address, but no IP6 address then you're not using it.

See the man page of inet6(3N) for details on the difference between IPv4 and IPv6.

Check the file /etc/rc.config.d and then if u find "netconf-ipv6" ipv6 is present else ipv4 is present.
