that's a v6 IP address. you may disable v6 by using the following
directive in sshd_config
AddressFamily
Specifies which address family should be used by sshd.
Valid arguments are “any”, “inet” (use IPv4 only) or
“inet6” (use IPv6 only). The default is “any”.

As soneone said earlier, you can also bind it to an interface with the
"ListenAddress" directive:
ListenAddress
Specifies the local addresses sshd should listen on. The
following forms may be used:
ListenAddress host|IPv4_addr|IPv6_addr
ListenAddress host|IPv4_addr:port
ListenAddress [host|IPv6_addr]:port
