Note:  there's no IPv4 address in that.

For comparison:
$ifconfig eth0
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:3e:42:d0:ce  
          inet addr:173.246.104.35  Bcast:173.246.107.255  Mask:255.255.252.0
          inet6 addr: 2604:3400:dc1:43:216:3eff:fe42:d0ce/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:3eff:fe42:d0ce/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:33142106 errors:0 dropped:6 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:16240510 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:29821619951 (29.8 GB)  TX bytes:7936335062 (7.9 GB)
          Interrupt:26 

See how the second line lists the address? And yours does not.
