It is not necessary to unlink the sections unless a change in the footer
text is required. -- Suzanne S.

How do I create page numbers in multiple sections?
Use the Page Number Format dialog to set the numbering to "Start at 1" in
each section. If you had done this in Section 2 before creating Section 3, then Section 3 would have inherited this setting; for existing sections, you'll have to skip from one section to another to set it in each one. In Word 2003 and earlier, you can access this dialog with the Format Page Number button on the Header and Footer toolbar. In Word 2007, on the contextual Header & Footer Tools | Design tab, click Page Number, then Format Page Numbers... -- Suzanne S.
