By default BuddyPress operates across sites in a multisite/multinetwork context. You’ll need to look at one of these plugins depending on your requirements:

It’s not discontinued, although @imath has passed development on to someone else. The canonical development repository is now: https://github.com/G3ronim0/rendez-vous
