So i would suggest disabling IPv6 if you are not using it, to /etc/sysctl.conf --> net.ipv6.conf.eth0.disable_ipv6 = 1
Also comment out the lines for ipv6 in your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfgh-eth0.
you may need to reboot after this and check if your network works fine now.
Here's my /etc/sysctl.conf, I don't see that setting in there, so does that mean I have to add it manually via vi?

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
