QoS is very, very silly approach to guarantee that a real-time deadline can be met. Over a conventional Ethernet, you can only achieve soft real-time (i.e. video streaming). For hard real-time (when people can literally die if the packet was not delivered in x ms) you need a protocol that has formally proven to have certain characteristics (like EtherCAT).
