Jetpack currently requires you to connect each site individually. Copying
options won't work; it has to do with the connection made with WP.com and
data created on their side. You can use the same WP.com account, but I've
found that there's no good way to script the connections of an entire
network. I sent a note to one of the Jetpack guys to ensure they see this
thread.
